Index of Treaties Entered Into By The Various
North American Indian Tribes, Bands, and Nations

(with the United States Unless Otherwise Noted)

     Here is the index to various treaties I have found to which Indigenous Nations in North America are parties.  The list is incomplete at this time, but I have decided to post it in its incomplete state for your use.  It will be undergoing editorial corrections as I identify problems and find solutions.  For instance, I am aware that the treaties of the First Nations in Canada are not on this list, and there are some other agreements which properly belong on this list which are not now available for posting.  Therefore, I would appreciate e-mails with suggestions or corrections to this list.


     Please note that while I have tried to list every Nation separately which was a party to a particular treaty, I have not attempted to "correct" spellings of  their names except for very minor things such as changing "Weas" to "Wea".  Therefore, you should carefully study the list to make sure that you have retrieved each possible spelling of the name of the Indigenous Nation in which you are interested.  For instance:  Wiandot and Wyandot;  Kickapoo and Kikapoes are different spellings for the same Nation and may have other Nation's treaties indexed between these spellings.  I have however, attempted to separate each set of treaties with the same spelling by shading the table.  Also please be aware that due to the break up of many Indigenous Nations into separate Tribes or Bands due to the Euro-American invasion and practice of treating separately with various units of Indigenous Nations, not all treaties with the same named Nation are equally applicable to their present day divisions.  Please proceed accordingly with your research.
