"The Applied Anthropology Laboratories has been awarded numerous research grants to conduct archaeological investigations, assist with preservation planning, and promote community awareness of the history and significance of the Battle of the Wabash (1791) and the Battle of Fort Recovery (1794), two historically significant battles of the Northwest Indian Wars. This research page serves as a clearinghouse for our current research and as a way for the public to learn more about these two battles that took place in modern day Fort Recovery, Ohio."

Current Tribal Information
"At the Battle of the Wabash in 1791, St. Clair and his American army were confronted by a large alliance of Native Americans, led by Weyapiersenwa (Blue Jacket of the Shawnee) and Mishikinakwa (Little Turtle of the Miami). This force was comprised of seasoned, volunteer warriors from nine different Native American tribes and from other smaller Native American groups. The major tribes in the Battle of the Wabash were the Wyandots, Mingo, Cherokee, Ojibwe, Ottawa, Potawatomi, Shawnee, Delaware, and Miami. Together these nine tribes accounted for the estimated 1,400 warriors on the day of battle.
The Native American alliance was ultimately able to surround, attack, and defeat the American force led by St. Clair in less than three hours..... "
