Pawnee Marhar

The Pawnee Marhar (also rendered as Pawnee Maha) appears in early 19th-century treaty records as a distinct group associated with the broader Pawnee confederation of the central Great Plains. The designation may refer to a specific band or village group within the Pawnee political structure. They participated in treaty negotiations with the United States during the period of American expansion into the Missouri River region following the Louisiana Purchase.
