What name was given to tribes who were willing to give up some parts of their culture to live more like the white settlers?

The Native Americans who chose to adopt white culture were called accommodationists. The tribes that rejected white culture outright were called traditionalists. Later, however, even the accommodationists were forced to forfeit, or give up, their lands to the United States.
