The correct answer is: By signing the treaty, the Native Americans received payment for their lands.

The Treaty of Greenville, signed in 1795, resulted in the Native American tribes ceding large portions of their territory in present-day Ohio and received payment and some recognition of their rights to the remaining lands. This helped to reduce the conflict between Native Americans and white settlers, at least temporarily.
