I think every people around the world have always regarded the land they inhabit as belonging to them as opposed to other groups of people, though not all cultures have developed such concepts as individual ownership with the right to buy and sell land as a commodity. Communal ownership was more common with individual use-rights to specific tracts, not just in America but in traditional societies around the world.

Documentary evidence as to aboriginal land ownership concepts can be found in the writings of Indian agents, like William Johnson, and in quotations of various Indian leaders.
