-On August 24, 1818, the Quapaw Indians ceded their lands west of present Rock Street in [[Little Rock]] to the United States in preparation for a move of the seat of government to the city from Arkansas Post near the mouth of the Arkansas River. The loss of land amounted to 16 million acres in southern and western Arkansas. That same year [[Pulaski County]] became part of the Missouri Territory.
