The Battle of Bear Valley was a small engagement fought in 1918 between a band of Yaquis and a detachment of United States Army soldiers. On January 9, 1918, elements of the American 10th Cavalry Regiment detected about thirty armed Yaquis in Bear Valley, west of Nogales, Arizona, a large area that was commonly used as a passage across the international border with Mexico. A short firefight ensued, which resulted in the death of the Yaqui commander and the capture of nine others. Though the conflict was merely a skirmish, it was the last time the United States Army and Native Americans engaged in combat and thus has been seen as the final official battle of the American Indian Wars.

  • La bataille de Bear Valley est un affrontement entre une trentaine d'Amérindiens rebelles de la tribu Yaqui et l'armée des États-Unis le 9 janvier 1918 dans le Sud de l'Arizona. Les Yaquis s'insurgeaient contre leurs conditions de vie et la grande pauvreté dont ils souffraient, ne pouvant espérer trouver dans l'économie américaine que des emplois saisonniers sous-payés dans les plantations agricoles. Dès 1917, les fermiers américains avaient aperçus des guerriers yaquis armés, ce qui avait suscité le déplacement de troupes de l'armée dans la région. L'affrontement a eu lieu dans le comté de Santa Cruz, tout près de la frontière mexicaine. Lors du combat, seul le chef des combattants amérindiens est tué et les autres sont capturés puis emprisonnés. Cette escarmouche est généralement considé (fr)
