Spokane Tribe is one of the Native American tribes that inhabit the Pacific NW

The Spokane Tribe is one of the Native American tribes  that inhabit the Pacific Northwest, primarily in what is now Washington State. The history of the Spokane  Warriors is closely tied to their efforts to  defend their territory from European settlers and the  United States Army in the mid-19th  century.

In 1858, during the conflict known as the Coeur d'Alene War, the Spokane Tribe  joined with other tribes such as the Coeur d'Alene, Palouse, Yakima, and Paiute to resist  American military forces. A notable event was the Battle of Steptoe Butte, where  the forces of Colonel Edward  Steptoe encountered a coalition of  Native warriors. Initially, the  Native forces won this battle, forcing Steptoe's troops to retreat due to  their numerical inferiority and  lack of ammunition. Spokane  residents faced  many challenges with the arrival of European settlers, from  disease to  loss of land and  resources. Despite signing treaties and  moving to designated reservations, many Spokane  residents continued to resist and preserve their culture and  traditional lands. The efforts of the Spokane  Warriors to defend their territory are  an important part of the tribe's history and the broader history of the Pacific Northwest.
