Explanation

The Medicine Lodge Council led to treaties in 1867 between the U.S. government and several Plains tribes, including the Kiowa, Comanche, and Southern Cheyenne and Arapaho. The treaties required these tribes to move to reservations in Indian Territory. Thus, the best description is that the Plains tribes were relocated to reservations.
