Ja.  The native Americans generally had the notion of collective land ownership, but the arriving Europeans did not.  There was even a basic difference in the concept.  The native American might say something like “People do not own land.  The land owns the people.”  To which the newly arriving Europeans might answer: “Whaaaaaaaa????”
