142 Treaty
This is test from my new work as yet untitled. I'm photographing the borders around historical Indian treaty sites, both cessations and reservations, often the sites will overlap. I plot the points in Google Earth and then find them on the real Earth with GPS and photograph N,S,E,W at each point. These are two possible ways of printing it.
The text of the treaty: Description of cession or reservation: The Eel river or Thorntown party of Miami Indians cede to the U. S. all claim to a reservation of land about 10 miles square at their village on Sugar Tree creek in Indiana, reserved to them by article 2, of the treaty of Oct. 6, 1818.
