Black Hoof, or Catahacasa, was principal civil chief of the Shawnee for much of the latter part of the 18th, and the first three decades of the 19th Century. He was opposed to Tecumseh's policy of confrontation with the Americans and led a large portion of the Shawnee nation in attempting to avoid the conflict of 1812.
The most interesting fact about Black Hoof is that he was a chief .
Tecumseh was the Shawnee chief who fought against the United States in the Tecumseh's War of 1811 to keep them out of Indian territory. This chief also fought on the side of the British in the War of 1812.
