		These peoples were later expelled from their ancestral domains by the Sac and Mesquaki, peoples of the Algonquian linguistic group, who were forced out of Michigan and Wisconsin in the early 18th century by other Native Americans.
		Black Hawk and his followers, however, returned to their original lands in 1830 and, although he had signed a treaty in 1831 promising to stay on the Iowa side of the river, he ignored the treaty in 1832 and led a group of Sac, including women and children, to the east bank of the Mississippi.
		The Sac and Mesquaki were settled soon afterward on a reservation near Fort Des Moines, Iowa, where Black Hawk died, and the peoples were forced to cede 23,310 sq km (9,000 sq mi) of land on the Iowa side of the river.

		These included the Omaha, Missouri, Dakota (Sioux), Winnebago, the Sac (Sauk) and Mesquaki (whom Europeans have called the Fox), Potawatomi, and Mascouten.
		At the time, Iowa was inhabited by the Illinois and Iowa tribes, who spoke a Siouan language.

	A 1994 Interview with Ray Young Bear
		The Mesquaki people, of which I am an enrolled member, are part of this area historically, and so we have beliefs that are animistic.
		That would be the greatest difference in being a Mesquaki, that animism is a unique philosophy to cherish and hold.
		Basically, in order to be the all-around circumspective Mesquaki you have to be attentive to all the factors of what it takes to be such.

	SAIL Ser.1, 6.3
		Ray Young Bear, born and raised on the Mesquaki Settlement near Tama, Iowa, is among a growing number of American Indian writers who have transmogrified the oral tradition of their people into a written form accessible to those outside of Native American culture.
		The Mesquaki story of a boy who fasted too long and became a fish is re-experienced in "it is the fish-faced boy who struggles." Throughout the poetry the traditional stories are seen in all their relationships and possibilities; they are examined in their literary, psychological, cultural, and historical contexts.
		In the poetry the specific encounters of the Mesquaki with their Tama and Montour neighbors and the local laws are alluded to the hunting rights case, ice fishing out of season, conflicts over land use.

	The Mesquakie
		The Mesquakie were hunters and shared a cultural tradition with tribes inhabiting the western Great Lakes, including the Winnebago, Potawatomi, and Menominee tribes.
		The Mesquakie's social organization was based on a system of clans organized around one or more sacred bundles for which semiannual ceremonies were held.
		Although the Mesquakie and the Sac remained neutral during the Black Hawk War, they were nevertheless forced to leave the land as reparations in 1832.

	"Wild Horse". Native American Art & History. Native people tribe. The Fox and the Sauk
		The only federally recognized tribe in Iowa, they prefer to be called the Mesquaki Indian settlement, but because of treaties signed jointly with the Sauk, their official name is the Sac and Fox of the Mississippi in Iowa.
		At the time of their first contact with the French in 1666, both the Fox and the Sauk were living in Wisconsin.
		The Fox called themselves the Mesquakie meaning "red earth people." Early French explorers mistook a clan name (Wagosh meaning fox) for that of the entire tribe and began referring to them as the "Renard" (French for Fox), and the English and Americans continued the error in their own language.
