Tour Guide: Pea Ridge was the first Civil War battle in which Indian troops participated. Two regiments of Cherokees, about 1,000 men, fought here in the Confederate army. The Indians routed two companies of Union cavalry, then joined victorious Confederate cavalrymen who had captured three Union cannon. Soon, Union cannon fire forced them to take cover in the woods. The Cherokee regiments were held in reserve throughout the remainder of the battle
