I believe the answer is:

pioneers

'settlers of a new territory' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for pioneers that I've seen before include "Ground-breakers, trail-blazers" , "First settlers in a new territory" , "They open up new territories" , "Innovators" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
