Chief Little Turtle led the Miami Indians in the battle to protect the Indian hunting grounds of Kentucky from the American settlers in the late 18th century. This sculpture was created by Robert Koepnick of Lebanon, Ohio in 1988 to remember the first settlers of the Ohio Valley, the native Americans.
