Push-Ma-Ta-Ha a Choctaw warrior.

This hand-colored lithograph of Pushmataha (ca. 1764-5 - 1824) (Choctaw), was a warrior noted for his vengeance on other Native Americans, notably Creeks and Seminoles, against whom he fought with Andrew Jackson during the War of 1812. He was supportive of Whites and signed land cessions of his Nation. He was painted by Charles Bird King on a visit to Washington, D.C. in 1824, shortly before his death from alcoholism and exposure. He was buried in the Congressional Cemetery with full military honors..

From McKenney & Hall?s History of the Indian Tribes, perhaps the most important work ever published on North American Indians.
Published by F.W.Greenough, Philadelphia and printed on the original full folio sheet.
Thomas Lorraine McKenney was Superintendent of Indian Affairs under presidents Madison, Monroe, John Quincy Adams, and Jackson. As a result of his keen interest in the customs and beliefs of the Indian tribes under his jurisdiction, he commissioned Charles Bird King and several other artists to paint the portraits of Indians whom he had met or had heard about. With the help of James Hall, a frontier lawyer, judge, newspaper editor, and author, McKenney assembled the portraits into a coherent representation of Indian life, lore, and costume.
Published as a three-volume portfolio between 1836 and 1842, the hand-colored lithographs after the paintings are among the only portraits remaining of this early generation of Indian warriors, statesmen, medicine men, and commoners.
The original paintings, which were on display in the Smithsonian Institution, were destroyed by fine in 1865.
