A Mohican Indian from the French and Indian War (also known as the Seven Years' War). The war was fought primarily between the colonies of British America and New France, with both sides supported by military units from their parent countries of Great Britain and France. The French were greatly outnumbered, so they made heavy use of Indian allies. This Indian is on display at Fort Ticonderoga in New York State where large-scale reenactments take place annually.
