<strong>NJ</strong> <strong>Pine</strong>lands coastal, tidewater and non-tidewater river orientated settlement<br />

Phase One: Coastal, tidewater and non-tidewater river orientated settlement.<br />

Native Americans used natural resources in a sustainable manner and fashion.<br />

Early European settlers and American Colonists used natural resources for settlement and market growth.<br />

These communities exploited, overharvested and destroyed natural resources.<br />

Major rivers and waterways provide ship-building sites and transportation access to larger markets.<br />

Smaller waterways provided communities w inexpensive hydropower and tidal power for mills and<br />

local/regional economies.<br />

Interior communities (like - Mount Holly, Batsto ) served as a transportation link and market node<br />

between inland resources, industries, coastal markets, coastwise trades and seaports.<br />

New Jersey <strong>Pine</strong> <strong>Barrens</strong> natural resources over exploited so by mid and late 19 th century. New Jersey <strong>Pine</strong><br />

<strong>Barrens</strong> industries and communities collapsed.<br />
