Coweta

Coweta was a Muscogee tribal town on the Chattahoochee River and one of the four mother towns of the Muscogee Confederacy. It was a trading center of the Lower Towns in the region the Spanish called Apalachicola.

William McIntosh, a chief of Coweta, signed the Treaty of Indian Springs in 1825, ceding much of the remaining Muscogee land to the United States. The Muscogee National Council condemned the agreement as a violation of its laws, and McIntosh was executed that year.
