The Choctaw, traditionally called the Chahta loved their home in Mississippi. It was very difficult for them to be relocated so far from their sacred sites. The Choctaw have a federally recognized Choctaw tribe in Mississippi made up of descendents of tribe members who refused to relocate to Oklahoma. They are the Mississippi Band of Choctaw.
