1784 Spanish Treaty
Note
SH is often CH
N is often nasal sound,
SG and GN, often replace the ck or sk
sounds in Choctaw
I haven’t figured out the equivalent
to Estuna Yet…. There is tima or tona are likey the correct
version, it’s possible the Spanish added sounds just as they drop
off letters. Additonally Choctaws contract words together but the
rules aren’t universal. This is at best a guess.

Differences in Locations from
Spanish Treaty to locations placed by Halbert and Swanton
I certainly think that part of
the central/sixtown or southern district had some fluidity in it’s
allegiance between 1784 and 1830. Add to this the loss of land, and
the migration of the villages further north after the early treaties,
and I think that some of the areas may have been correct in both
accounts. Also, we see the Choctaw use the same names for places in
the new territory (Oklahoma) that they used in the old, so it’s
possible that as a village moved, the name remained the same.
We know that in almost all treaties, Six Towns always had a
representative (for example Red Fort), that signed for the Six Towns,
despite the fact they technically had a district chief. We definitely
see an independence with the Six Town and the Sukenatcha (Little
Leader’s) bands in later years.
