Upper Kispoko Sept of the Shawnee Nation
People have asked me a few questions...like who were the Shawnee? Where were they located? Are you Native American?...well, the Shawnee are Native Americans who lived peacefully in the southern regions of the United Sates...They were forced North to the Ohio Valley and are now on reservations in Oklahoma and Kansas ( some of the Kansas Shawnee who traveled to Oklahoma were incorporated with the Cherokee Nation in 1870)...("from Jim Oyler, Principal Chief, United Tribe of Shawnee Indians.... The UNITED TRIBE OF SHAWNEE INDIANS have always been in what is now Kansas but not a part of Kansas. I still live on a reservation which is Indian Country known as SHAWNEE RESERVE 206.") .... some traveled to Canada...I have included a story as told to me by my Grandmother..."Woman and the Wolf (in the native tongue..we would say..ni-wa etc m'wheewa)...and have also included the teaching of Tecumseh...my favorite Shawnee Warrior.....and Yes I am Shawnee...
