Indian and the Puritan monument in Newark's Washington Park

The Indian and the Puritan is a marble and bronze monument by Gutzon Borglum, the sculptor of Mount Rushmore. Commissioned by the city to commemorate its 250th anniversary from 1666–1916, the monument was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 28, 1994.

The monument consists of a 22-foot bronze lamp standard featuring two carved marble sculptures: a Native American and a Puritan. It is located opposite 5 Washington Street, the Newark Public Library, in Harriet Tubman Square in Newark, New Jersey. The lamp standard features Newark's city seal and two inscriptions that describe the city's history.

Moved to its current location in Washington Park in 1977, the statue is part of several other works by Borglum in Newark. These include Seated Lincoln, First Landing Party of the Founders of Newark, and Wars of America.
