The Sauk and Mesquakie Indians were living in the Mississippi valley in the 1820s and 1830s when pioneer settlers began moving west into their hunting grounds. In the summer the Indian men hunted buffalo and elk and bartered for supplies with European traders.



At first the fur trade was good for both the Indians and the Europeans. Eventually, however this trade led to conflicts over land. As these problems increased and pioneer settlers pressed farther toward Indian lands, the U.S. government moved the Indians west. But some refused to move. Chief Black Hawk of the Sauk Tribe resisted moving.
