A center dedicated to preserving the history, languages and culture of the Myaamia people has received a $2 million grant from the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma, whose ancestors were forced off the lands in Ohio 175 years ago.
The funds will be used at the Myaamia Center on the grounds of Miami University of Ohio, which was a fledgling university when the Myaamia people were driven from the area. The tribe is now scattered across several states, including Indiana, Michigan, Oklahoma and Ohio.
