Pontiac's War (jul 1, 1763 – jul 1, 1766)

Description:

1761 Neolin gets a vision from the Master of Life and starts preaching about Native unity and kicking out the colonists. Pontiac, an Ottowa leader, gets on board. He lays siege to Ft Detriot in 1763 for 6 months. Other tribes attack forts Sandusky, St. Joseph, and Miami. Ottowa and Ojibwes take Ft Michilimackinae with a sneaky game of lacrosse. Overall kill about 4,000 people. 1766 Pontiac and diplomat William Johnson negotiate a peace.
