The Mississinewa River is a tributary of the Wabash River in eastern Indiana and a small portion of western Ohio in the United States.
During the War of 1812, the river was the site of the Battle of the Mississinewa, which pitted United States forces against the Miami Indians. Two oilers of the U.S. Navy have been named USS Mississinewa after the river. The word Mississinewa is partly derived from the Miami Indian word nimacihsinwi which means “It lies on a slope".
The Mississinewa River has its headwaters near the Indiana state border in northwestern Darke County, Ohio, within 2 miles (3.2 km) of the start of the Wabash.

Mississinewa River & the Seven Pillars are considered a sacred site by the Miami Indians. The Pillars are located along the Francis Slocum Trail. This corridor is steeped in Indiana history as well from the time the Miami villages were swept through by troops for removal in 1812. The Battle of Mississinewa was one of the first directives of General William Henry Harrison in the War of 1812.
