Abstract
The Creek Indians are the descendants of a number of ethnically and linguistically diverse groups that formed a political alliance in the late seventeenth or early eighteenth century that came to be known as the Creek Confederacy. This document, based on secondary source material, presents a concise summary of traditional Creek ethnography, including the history of the development of the Confederacy, prior to their removal to Indian Territory in Oklahoma by the U. S. government in 1836.
