Moshulatubbee District
One of the three districts of the Choctaw Nation. Presided over by a district chief. Named for a well known tribal chief. District was located in present day counties of Latimer, Pittsburg, Haskell and LeFlore. Capital was at Avakni Achukma (Latham).∼Mushulatubbe was a prominent chief who governed the northeastern district of the Choctaw Nation in the early nineteenth century. Although he initially resisted efforts by the United States to involve Choctaws in the War of 1812, he eventually acquiesced and allowed troops to fight with Andrew Jackson against insurgent Creek Redsticks in the Creek War. In 1820, pressured by Jackson, Mushulatubbee agreed to the Treaty of Doak's Stand because of the growing treat from Anglo American settlers in Mississippi who tried to impose their laws on the Choctaws. The treaty gave the Choctaw land west of the Mississippi. In 1924 he went with a delegation to Washington, D. C., to prevent further land cessions, but in 1830 he signed the Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek, ceding the Choctaw's remaining land in Mississippi. Because of his seeming willingness to ced Choctaw land and consider removal, Mushulatubbe lost the election of 1830 to John Folsom, who was opposed to further land cessions. Mushulatubee did of small pox near the Choctaw Agency on the Arkansas River in the Choctaw Nation
