Chief Joseph was the Nez Perce chief who spoke these fateful words,
"From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more forever."
Native American name Chief Joseph In-mut-too-yah-lat-lat, (born c. 1840, Wallowa Valley, Oregon Territory—died September 21, 1904,
Colville Reservation, Washington, U.S.), Nez Percé chief who led his followers in a dramatic escape to Canada in response to white settlement of tribal lands in Oregon.
The Nez Percé tribe was one of the most powerful in the Pacific Northwest, and one of the most welcoming to whites in the first half of the nineteenth century.
Many Nez Percé were converted to Christianity, including Chief Joseph's father, and Chief Joseph was educated in a mission school.
Following the arrival of white settlers in the Pacific Northwest after 1850, the US pressed the region's Native Americans to surrender their lands and accept resettlement on small, often unappealing reservations.
Some Nez Percé chiefs, including Chief Joseph's father, questioned the validity of treaties pertaining to their lands negotiated in 1855 and 1863, claiming that the chiefs involved did not represent their tribe.
