Battle of Fallen Timbers


In this the last battle of the (1782-1794) Northwest Indian War, the Three Fires Confederation must have been heart broken when they saw their Delaware, Miami, Shawnee and Wyandot allies being led into battle by the white man, Blue Jacket. Little Turtle stepped down as the main leader of the Delaware, Miami, Shawnee and Wyandot shortly before the Battle of Fallen Timbers occurred, which allowed the white man, Blue Jacket, to assume the command of the Delaware, Miami, Shawnee and Wyandot warriors. Around 1000 warriors (they could have sent far more of their warriors) from the Three Fires Confederation showed up to aid their unwilling Delaware, Miami, Shawnee and Wyandot allies, but only a few participated in the Battle of Fallen Timbers. They were extremely upset with Blue Jacket. Nearly 300 Indian casualties were inflicted on the discontented allies of the Three Fires Confederation, during the American victory.
