Southeast Creek

by: Andrea Navarro

Their Home

  • There are two separate Creek Indian tribes today, the Poarch Band of Creek Indians in Alabama and the Oklahoma Creek Indians.
  • A small group of Creek Indian descendants remained in their tribal land and currently live on a reservation which is 57 miles from Mobile, Alabama.
  • The Battle of Burnt Corn in 1813 was part of the larger Creek War. It was initially considered to be a small skirmish, with the Creek Indians of Alabama emerging as the victors, but it ultimately resulted in the defeat of the entire Creek nation.

Food

  • The staple food of the Creek Indians diet was corn. They also ate a wide variety of meats including boar, deer, bison, turkey and fish which was plentiful during the summer.
