The Miami Indians

The Miamis originally lived in Indiana and southern Michigan. They moved into the Maumee Valley around A.D. 1700 and soon became the most powerful Indian tribe in Ohio. The Miamis speak a form of the Algonquian Indian language and so are related to the Delaware, Ottawa, and Shawnee Indians.

Political alliances were complicated and changed with the times. The Miamis were allies of the French until British traders moved into the Ohio country around A.D. 1740. The French forced the British out of Ohio and the Miamis allied themselves with the French again until the British victory in the French and Indian War. As French trading posts turned into British forts, the Ohio Indians banded together to fight the British. During the American Revolution, the Miami fought with the British against the Americans. After the defeat of the British they continued to fight the Americans.

Little Turtle was one of the greatest chiefs of the Miamis. He led a force of Miamis and other Indians to victory over two American armies, defeating the army of General Harmar in 1790 (Harmar’s Defeat) and the army of General St. Clair in 1791 (St. Clair’s Defeat).

General Anthony Wayne finally defeated the Miamis and other Ohio Indians at the Battle of Fallen Timbers in 1794. They surrendered most of their lands in Ohio with the signing of the Treaty of Greenville. In 1818 the United States forced the Miamis to give up their last reservation in Ohio.

NOTES

Additional Resources & Contact Information

THE MYAAMIA COLLECTION is housed in the Walter Havighurst Special Collections and the Miami Art Museum. On November 14, 2002, the collection was established by Miami University and the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma as a repository of Miami Indian historical and cultural materials. Although still under development, the collection will include tribal archives, historical documents, papers, cassette tapes, compact discs, photographs and other ephemera donated by tribal members. Efforts of tribe members to revitalize the Miami language also comprise a signifi cant part of the collection.

THE FERDINAND BACH COLLECTION OF NATIVE AMERICAN MATERIALS in the Walter Havighurst Special Collections Library was given by Ferdinand and Beverly Small Bach in 1988. A catalog of the collection is available in Special Collections.

THE NATIVE AMERICAN WOMEN PLAYWRIGHTS ARCHIVE (NAWPA) is a cooperative venture with the Miami University Libraries and Miami’s Theatre Department. NAWPA is a collection of original materials by Native women playwrights of the Americas. It is housed in The Walter Havighurst Special Collections.
