Dawes Act of 1887  

Definición

  • Early in the history of relationships between the U.S. government and Native Americans, the government began to grant allotments—legal title to pieces of land—to American Indians. The first allotments were issued in the Southeast in the 1830s and 1840s as part of the removal to Oklahoma of tribes such as the Cherokee and Creeks.
