Williams Photo Cpmpany, Hastings, Nebraska Gentlenen:- Thank you for the two photographs of the old mi dal which you sent us. I think there is very little question that it is one of those which were used by the Si:n·nisfu authorities in establishing relations ~ith the plains tribes. I am sorry to say that our Museum has no similar e~ample, nor any d e se rd pt-Lon of such rre d al s , We do know, from the Spanish archives which we have here, that shortly before Pike vi~ited that region Lieut. ll~acuhdo Melgares w.i th a considerable force was sent out by the authorities of S nta Fe am to each of tlb.e tribes with whicfu they dealy presented a Spanish banner and a L medal. Cl:arles IV became king of Spain in 1788 and abdicated in 1808. The engraving on this JartiQular medal seems to be rather crude but appears not to be Navajo work. It is not impossi bJe that the work was done riglrut here in Santa Fe by some silversmith. The Franciscan Order had jurisdiction in New Mexico, not the Jesuits, but I think it more probable that the aivil-milita:ry authoritie , Qither here or farther south in New Spain-- Chi• huahua or even Me~ico city-- had these medals ma.de. 1 coin dated 1797 would probably not be in New Me::xico until so me time later. Old coinage (that prior to 1788) was being "z-e de emed" in New Spain during 1793-95. There is evidence in tl!n.e archives tm t it was Spanish policy to make "giftsn to the wild, or "Gen ti le n tribes during the 1atter part of the 18th century and early 19th, md from the date of this coin I think it pretty safe to consider that this is one of the medals p:rrnsented by Melgares in 1806. t.df think you have Pikers date wrong--he was in that country Ja. ter tihm Mel• gares in 1806 rather thoo in 1804.

  • The Massacre Canyon Battle Are Found Below: One Is by a Chicago Tribune Reporter Writing out of Omaha, and the Other Is a 1922 Account by John W
    The term “Indian Wars” usually refers to battles and skirmishes that occurred between the United States army and various Native American tribes in the second half of the 19th century. But long before Europeans arrived in the Americas, Indians had been engaging in savage inter-tribal warfare. It is no exaggeration to say that tribal warfare was an integral part of Indian culture. There is no way to know when the first large battle between Indian tribes occurred in North America, but the last great battle was fought in southwest Nebraska between the Sioux and the Pawnees. It happened on August 5, 1873, and was actually more of a massacre than a battle. The two most riveting sources on the Massacre Canyon Battle are found below: one is by a Chicago Tribune reporter writing out of Omaha, and the other is a 1922 account by John W. Williamson, the white trail agent for the Pawnees, who witnessed and participated in the battle. The Massacre Canyon Battle From The Chicago Daily Tribune; August 30, 1873; page 2; written by reporter Aaron About and sent from Omaha, Nebraska, on August 25. On the 8th of August, Conductor Norton, who came down on the western passenger train of the Union Pacific Road, announced that a “great battle” had been fought between the Sioux and Pawnee Indian tribes, on the Republican, 150 miles south of Elm Creek. Mr. Norton said several Indians had come into his train at Grand Island, and told a pitiful story of the battle. Little attention was paid to the report, people believing the Pawnees…had overrated the fight, and that the whole affair would in a few days settle down into a small skirmish.

To accomplish this, chipped stone and spatial analyses are performed to clarify and explore site structure at the Wallace site, resulting in interpretation of the site as a cold-weather seasonal camp that was likely reoccupied.
