The Pequot War was an example of a conflict in which Indigenous peoples allied with English colonists and fought other Indigenous peoples. Specifically, the war took place between 1636 and 1638 and primarily involved the Pequot tribe and a coalition of English settlers from the Massachusetts Bay, Plymouth, and Saybrook colonies, along with their Indigenous allies, such as the Mohegan and Narragansett tribes. The conflict resulted in a significant defeat for the Pequot and the decimation of their population and territory.
