Story Note: In 1965, the federal government and the tribes reached a $15 million settlement for lands ceded in 1891. However, the Indian Claims Commission’s jurisdiction covered claims only through 1946, and Fort Reno was not transferred to the U.S. Department of Agriculture until 1948.

Some federal legal analyses later interpreted that settlement as resolving claims related to Fort Reno.
