When Europeans first made contact with Native Americans in Georgia, there were four major tribes living in what was to become the Southeastern region of the United States. They were: Choctaw, Chickasaw, Cherokee, and Creek. Which of these tribes was the largest in both land ownership and population? Choctaw Creek Chickasaw Cherokee
please help
The Chickasaws were one of the "Five Civilized Tribes" who went to the Indian Territory during the era of Indian Removal. Unlike other tribes, who exchanged land grants, the Chickasaw received financial compensation from the United States for their lands east of the Mississippi River.[7] The Chickasaw Nation is the thirteenth largest federally-recognized tribe in the United States. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Civilized_Tribes
so its chickasaw
I think so... that was all I could find on it.
thx
The Chickasaw Indians were Mississippi’s second largest Indian group after the Choctaws. Before the United States government forced their removal in the 1830s, the Chickasaw resided in north Mississippi with their villages centered between the headwaters of the Yazoo and Tombigbee rivers around present-day Tupelo. They also claimed lands covering present-day western Tennessee. Their population numbers fluctuated over the 18th century between 2,000 to 5,000 people.
This says that the Choctaws were the largest
