examines relations between Southeastern Indians who were removed to Indian Territory in the early nineteenth century and Southern Plains Indians who claimed this area as their own.These two Indian groups viewed the world in different ways. The Southeastern Indians, primarily Choctaws, Cherokees, Creeks, Chickasaws, and Seminoles, were agricultural peoples. By the nineteenth century they were adopting American 'civilization': codified laws, Christianity, marketdriven farming, and a formal, Euroamerican style of education. By contrast, the huntergathers of the Southern Plainsthe Comanches, Kiowas, Wichitas, and Osageshad a culture based on the buffalo. They actively resisted the Removed Indians 'invasion' of their homelands.The Removed Indians hoped to lessen Plains Indian raids into Indian Territory by 'civilizing' the Plains peoples through diplomatic councils and trade. But the Southern Plains Indians were not interested in 'civilization' and saw no use in farming. Even their defeat by the U.S. government could not bridge the cultural gap between the Plains and Removed Indians, a gulf that remains to this day.
