Annotation

Metacomet (c. 1639-1676), also known as King Philip or Metacom, was a war chief or sachem of the Wampanoag Indians and their leader in King Philip's War. He led his warriors in the uprising that would later bear his name. Hunted by a group of rangers he was fatally shot on August 12, 1676, on Mount Hope in Bristol, Rhode Island. Pontiac or Obwandiyag (c. 1720-1769), was an Ottawa leader who became famous for his role in Pontiac's Rebellion (1763-1766), an American Indian struggle against the British military occupation of the Great Lakes region following the British victory in the French and Indian War. Tecumseh (1768-1813), whose given name is more accurately rendered as Tecumtha or Tekamthi, was a famous Shawnee leader. He spent much of his life attempting to rally various Native American tribes in a mutual defense of their lands, which eventually led to his death in the War of 1812. Osceola (1804-1838) was a war chief of the Seminole in Florida. Osceola led a small band of warriors in the Seminole resistance during the Second Seminole War when the United States tried to remove the Seminoles from their lands.
