On this day, 9 May 1763, what became known as Pontiac's war began when warriors from several Indigenous nations under the Ottawa leader Pontiac attacked British colonial troops at Fort Detroit in present-day Michigan.
While Fort Detroit itself did not fall, Native American fighters captured several forts, with Seneca warriors seizing Venango and Le Boeuf.
Despite British forces massacring unarmed Native Americans, and attempting to spread smallpox among the Native population, fighting continued into the following year, causing around 450 British casualties. The eventual peace agreement reached ensured important concessions to Native Americans, including a ban on colonisation west of the Appalachian ridge, and the loss of several forts.
