Sauk Village Facts |
Did
you know...
The area that is
now known as Sauk
Village has been a
center of activity
for hundreds of
years. Originally,
several Native
American tribes
inhabited this
land, which is a
part of an area of
high ground
surrounding Lake
Michigan known as
the Valparaiso
Moraine. The
Native Americans
used this high
ground for
transporting herd
animals and trade
items. Though the
Potawatomi and
Sauk, from
Michigan, became
the namesake of
the Sauk Trail. As
the westward
expansion
increased during
the 19th century,
the Sauk tribes
were forced to
move westward.
Annually, they
would travel the
Sauk Trail to
collect treaty
money from Canada
and the United
States. |
