FA2 120mm The Walking Bear Fox 1830 £31.50
Living originally in the Great Lakes region and later in Iowa and Kansas, the Fox and their close allies the Sauk shared Lthe same language, observed the same customs, and were found together by the French in 1650. Reputedly the fiercest of all Woodlands tribes, they formed a confederation in 1760 and were continually at war with the French and the Chippewa. They also fought together in the disatrous Black Hawk War of 1832 after which they were deported to the Indian Territory (Oklahoma). Although later assimilated into the Plains culture, the Sauk and Fox were Woodlands Indians, lived in bark lodges and used the canoe. They ate wild rice, and cultivated maize, beans, squash, and tobacco. After their deportation, they retained several Eastern elements in their clothing and weaponry, e.g. the roach headdress, the front-seamed leggings, the bear claw necklace and the gunstock club. The Fox were known in the Algonquian language as 'the People of the Red Earth', as distinguished from the Sauk, who were 'the People of the Yellow Earth'. Their two great leaders were Black Hawk and Keokuk.
