Facts and practical information
Claremore Mound, an ancient earthen platform mound in present-day Rogers County, Oklahoma, is the site of the Battle of Strawberry Moon. In June 1817, a band of Cherokee Indians and their allies, under Chief Spring Frog, attacked Pasuga, an Osage Indian village at the foot of Claremore Mound, killing thirty-eight Osage, including their Chief Glahmo, and taking one hundred and four captives. In revenge, the Osage attacked the Cherokee for the next twenty years, led by Wah-tianka, Glahmo's son. The mound is located north of Sageeyah near the south bank of the Verdigris River. ()
