Shawnee...
"The Shawnee originally lived in two groups, an eastern tribe in
what is now South Carolina, and a western tribe in Tennessee.
They migrated northward and westward, finally uniting in Ohio
around 1750, and became known there as a tribe that often took
the warpath against Indian and white settler alike.   It was the
Shawnee and their allies under Tecumseh who were defeated at
the Battle of Tippecanoe in 1811.   Shortly afterward the entire
tribe was settled in Indiana, then Missouri, then Kansas, and
finally in Oklahoma, where about 750 now remain.

The Shawnee speak an Algonquian tongue, which is geographic-
ally grouped with the southeastern languages of this family -
Powhatan, Pamlico, Nanticoke, and Delaware."
