Red_Pole_(Shawnee)
Red Pole (Muscquaconocah)[1] was an 18th-century Shawnee leader.
He is believed to be a brother of Blue Jacket. He led a delegation to negotiations for the 1795 Treaty of Greenville, which ended the Northwest Indian War,[2] and was a signatory.[3] His name was transcribed as Misquacoonacaw on the treaty.
Red Pole accompanied Blue Jacket to Philadelphia in November 1798, and met with President George Washington.[4] His likeness, along with Blue Jacket, was represented as a wax figure by Charles Willson Peale at his Philadelphia Museum.[5]
The United States erected a headstone for Red Pole in downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.[6]
