The Battle of Newtown (August 29, 1779) was a major battle of the Sullivan Expedition, an armed offensive led by General John Sullivan that was ordered by the Continental Congress to end the threat of the Iroquois who had sided with the British in the American Revolutionary War. John Butler and Joseph Brant did not want to make a stand at Newtown, but proposed instead to harass the enemy on the march, but they were overruled by Sayenqueraghta and other Indian chiefs. The Battle of Chemung (August 13, 1779) was the only other major battle of the Sullivan Expedition where the Continental force lost six dead and nine wounded.

rdfs:comment	La bataille de Newtown a eu lieu le 29 août 1779. C'est la principale bataille de l'expédition Sullivan, une offensive armée dirigée par le général John Sullivan à la demande du Congrès continental pour mettre fin à la menace des Iroquois qui s'étaient alliés avec les Britanniques dans la guerre d'indépendance des États-Unis. * Portail de la révolution américaine * Portail des forces armées des États-Unis * Portail des Nord-Amérindiens * Portail des années 1770 (fr) ニュータウンの戦い（ニュータウンのたたかい、英: Battle of Newtown、またはシェマングの戦い、英: Battle of Chemung）は、アメリカ独立戦争の中盤、1779年8月29日にアメリカ大陸軍の行ったサリバン遠征で唯一の大きな戦闘である。この遠征は、イギリス軍側に付いたイロコイ連邦インディアンからのニューヨーク邦に対する脅威を終わらせるために大陸会議がジョン・サリバン将軍に命じて、ニューヨーク邦からイロコイ族を追い出すことを目指していた。ロイヤリストの指導者ジョン・バトラーとウォルター・バトラーはニュータウンで大陸軍と対峙することを望まず、行軍中の敵軍にゲリラ戦を仕掛けることを提案したが、サエンクエラータなどインディアンの酋長達に押し切られた。この戦闘はサリバン遠征の中で最も重要な戦闘であり、アメリカ独立戦争の中でも重要な転機になった。戦闘は現在のニューヨーク州、エルマイラの直ぐ郊外、シェマング川に沿った丘の麓で行われた。 (ja) A Batalha de Newtown (29 de agosto de 1779), foi a única grande batalha da Expedição Sullivan, uma ofensiva armada liderada pelo general John Sullivan sob ordens do Congresso Continental, para pôr fim à ameaça dos iroqueses que haviam ficado ao lado dos britânicos na Independência dos Estados Unidos da América. (pt) Bitwa pod Newtown – starcie zbrojne, które miało miejsce w roku 1779 podczas walk z Irokezami. W maju 1778 r. oddział lojalistów generała Johnstona przy wsparciu 900 Irokezów pod wodzą Josepha Branta dokonał masakry osadników w okolicy Newton (Elmira) i Cherry Valley. Latem 1779 r. przeciwko Irokezom wyruszyła ekspedycja karna licząca 2 500 żołnierzy pod dowództwem generała Johna Sullivana, która wkroczyła na tereny Wielkich Jezior zamieszkiwane przez pięć zjednoczonych irokeskich plemion. Dnia 29 sierpnia pod Newtown oddział 500 Irokezów i 100 lojalistów wydał Amerykanom bitwę. W wyniku starcia wojska Branta zostały rozgromione. Sullivan utracił zaledwie 40 ludzi. Po zwycięskiej bitwie Amerykanie zniszczyli 40 osiedli indiańskich, wycinając pozostałych w nich mieszkańców.
