Best Answer

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.
