The Dawes General Allotment Act granted Native Americans a specif area or farmland.

The Dawes General Allotment Act of February 1887, gave reservation land to the people that belonged to the tribes. The federal government wanted to have farmers that worked on the fields and make them productive, as the white people did with their portions of land. The Act gave 160 acres of land to the head of a family or 80 acres to a single man.
