[b. a. : 



now extinct. The tribal divisions in the 

 order of the camp circle, from the en- 

 trance at the E. southward, are Kata, 

 Kogui, Kaigwu, Kingep, Semat (i. e., 

 Apache), and Kongtalyui. 



Although brave and warlike, the Kiowa 

 are considered inferior in most respects 

 to the Comanche. In person they are 

 dark and heavily built, forming a marked

contrast to the more slender and brighter 

 complexioned prairie tribes farther x. 

 Their language is full of nasal and chok- 

 ing sounds and is not well adfipted to 

 rhythmic composition. Their present 

 chief is Gui-pilgo, 'Lone Wolf,' l)ut 

 his title is disputed byApiatan. They 

 occupied the same reservation with the 

 Comanche and Kiowa Apache, between 

 Washita and Redrs., in s. w. Oklahoma; 

 but in 1901 their lands were allotted in 

 severalty and the remainder opened to set- 

 tlement. Pop. 1,165 in 1905. Consult
