Fallen Timbers, Battle of
битва у поваленных деревьев (Фоллен-тимберс)
Произошла 20 августа 1794 около р. Моми [Maumee River] в Огайо, между силами генерала Э. Уэйна [Wayne, Anthony] численностью 1,3 тыс. человек и объединенным отрядом индейцев делаваров [Delaware], шауни [Shawnee], оттава [Ottawa], майами [Miami] и др. общей численностью 800 человек под предводительством вождя Синий Камзол [Blue Jacket]. Поваленные ураганом деревья на поле боя мешали индейцам маневрировать, сражение через два часа закончилось их поражением. Это положило конец их сопротивлению в долине р. Огайо [Ohio River] и привело к заключению Гринвиллского договора [Greenville, Treaty of] от 3 августа 1795
