Mushulatubbee (Choctaw Amosholi-T-vbi, "Warrior Who Perseveres") (1770 - c. 1836) was the principal chief of the Choctaw Native American tribe during their forcible removal to Oklahoma. In 1812 he assisted Andrew Jackson in the war against the Creek and signed the Treaty of the Choctaw Trading House on the 24th of October, 1816, and the Treaty Ground on the 18th of October, 1820. In December of 1824 he led a Choctaw delegation to Washington, and on September 26, 1830, he signed the Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek, which ceded most Choctaw territory in Mississippi in exchange for territory in Oklahoma. He died of smallpox in Arkansas.
