What do you think Native Americans believed about who owned this land and how it should be used?

I need help with this guys !

I think they didn’t really have a judgement about who owned the land but had different tribes of different people, the different tribes might’ve had controversy against each other but that isn’t exactly known. Conflicts over the use and ownership of Native lands are not new. Land has been at the center of virtually every significant interaction between Natives and non-Natives since the earliest days of European contact with the indigenous peoples of North America. By the 19th century, federal Indian land policies divided communal lands among individual tribal members in a proposed attempt to make them into farmers. The result instead was that struggling tribes were further dispossessed of their land. In recent decades, tribes, corporations, and the federal government have fought over control of Native land and resources in contentious protests and legal actions, including the Oak Flat, the San Francisco Peaks Controversy, and the Keystone XL pipeline

Native Americans had a spiritual vision of Nature and could not conceive land ownership as something respectable. European forced the Natives to adapt gradually to their notion of private property and land ownership.

in a republic, sovereign power is held by those who are eligible to_____, while political is exercised by the representatives chosen by the citizens.
