the treaty was not a grant of rights to the Indians, but a grant of rights from them- a reservation of those not granted.

grant of rights to the indians
otorgamiento de derechos a los indígenas


Explanation:
Mi intento de traducción: The treaty was not a grant of rights to the Indians, but a grant of rights from them- a reservation of those not granted.
= el tratado no era un otorgamiento de derechos a los indígenas sino una concesión de derechos desde ellos, o sea, un resguardo de aquellos derechos no otorgados.
