This was the war that ended all wars with the Native Americans. This war started in 1879 and had taken many lives, destroyed homes, and horses stolen. These are just some things that happened in the Sheapeater war between the European and American settlers and Native americans.
The sheepeater war started started because the pilgrims accused the native americans of killing 3 settlers and some chinese miners (names unknown) also accused of stealing horses. Native americans were moved and put into camps because they had gold on the reservation and this made the Native americans rebel.
The troops were trying to find the natives and had to travel through very terrain such as the salmon also known as the river of no return when the troops stopped
