USA: Missouri Illinois Indiana. Indian tribes villages borders. SDUK, 1848 map
Artist/engraver/cartographer: Cartography by Tanner; Engraved by J & C Walker. Provenance: "Maps of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge", published by Charles Knight, 90 Fleet Street, London, under the superintendance of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge. Type: Antique steel engraved map. The map was originally engraved in 1833 (this date is printed on the map) and it depicts the area shown as at that date, although this edition was published in 1848. Indian settlements, villages and tribes existing in 1833 are marked on the map as tipi (teepee) symbols, along with some mines and mineral deposits. The Indian boundary concluded in the second and third Treaties of Prairie du Chien of 1829, in which Native American Tribes ceded land in present day Wisconsin and Illinois, is marked on the map as the "Indian Boundary of 1829". Chicago is marked on the map, along with the then "proposed canal which will unite the Gulfs of St Lawrence and Mexico Portage" which was eventually completed in 1900 as the Chicago Drainage Canal (now known as the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal).
