Long before settlers set foot in Indiana, many Native American tribes lived there undisturbed. But trouble started brewing when Europeans and Americans arrived and fought for control of the land.

Interesting video. I'm a Miami Indian, born and raised in Miami County, Indiana. My great great grandfather, Chief John Bull Mongosa, was one of the last war chiefs of the tribe before most of the Miami tribe was forced by the government to move to the Kansas and Oklahoma Indian reservations in 1840.

I live by the wabash river and there's still an old hidden outpost and railroad tracks going into the water for the boats to load gear onto Land. There's a gazebo but it's almost completely rotted away.

The British actually created a buffer so that settlers could NOT encroach on Indian territory, but the Americans DID go out and seize it.

WOW a city of 1,500? That is NOT a city of thousands !

Clark was my hero in Elementary School. Hearing that story of the massacre a few years back put him near the bottom of my list. If you have an issue with the British, deal with them.

I like how they celebrate his needless slaughter of 5 people to "send a message".

The trouble started when Smithsonian got involved with it.

Terrible that essentially no natives live in Indiana today.

A somewhat manufactured story boosting Clark. The outcome was glorious for the Americans but it's still a matter of history-juggling.

Perhaps the Miami drove the Mississippian peoples out of Indiana.

Don't you find it fascinating that the Smithsonian groups GIANT/Fallen Angel/Nephilim skeletons into ONE classification and calls them ALL: "Indian"?? Where are the skeletons of these GIANTS that we sent to the Smithsonian for safe keeping??

The Indians fought and killed other Indians for land as well.
