The Shawnee Trail, also known as the Shawnee Road, was established in the early 19th century as a cattle-driving route from Texas to markets in the Midwest and Eastern United States. It was primarily used by cattlemen and ranchers, including those from the Shawnee tribe, who sought to transport livestock. The trail became significant during the post-Civil War era, as demand for beef surged. It played a crucial role in the development of the cattle industry and the expansion of settlements in the region.
