Description

1763 siege during Pontiac's Rebellion

Siege during Pontiac's War

The siege of Fort Detroit was an ultimately unsuccessful attempt by North American Natives to capture Fort Detroit during Pontiac's War. The siege was led primarily by Pontiac, an Ottawa chief and military leader. This rebellion would be one of the catalysts that hastened the declaration of the Proclamation of 1763 which would eventually precipitate the events leading to the American Revolution.
