KIOWA APACHE

settlements. It appears also thatthey were 

 then in friendship with the Pawnee, un- 

 less, as seems more probable, by Pana 

 is meant the Arikara, an offshoot of the 

 Pawnee proper and old trading friends of 

 the Kiowa and the Kiowa Apache. From 

 the fact that they traded horses to other 

 tribes, and that La Salle proposed to sup- 

 ply himself from them or their neighbors, 

 it is not impossible that they sometimes 

 visited the French post on Peoria lake. 

 In 1719 La Harpe speaks of them, under 

 the name of Quataquois, as living in con- 

 nection with the Tawakoni and other 

 affiliated tribes in a village on the Cimar- 

 ron near its junction with the Arkansas, 

 in the present Creek Nation, Okla. In 

 1805 Lewis and Clark described the 

 Kiowa Apache as living between the 



heads of the two forks of Cheyenne r. in 

 the Black-hills region of n. e. Wyoming, 

 and numbering 300 in 25 tipis. The 

 Kiowa then lived on the North Platte, 

 and both tribes had the same alliances 

 and general customs. They were rich in 

 horses, which they sold to the Arikara 

 and Mandan. In 1837, in connection 

 with the Kiowa and Tawakoni, the Kiowa 

 Apache (under the name Kataka) made 

 their first treaty with the Government. 

 Their subsequent history is that of the 

 Kiowa. In 1853 they are mentioned as 

 a warlike band ranging the waters of 

 Canadian r. in tiie same great plains oc- 

 cupied l)y the Comanche, with whom 

 they often joined in raiding expeditions. 

 By the treaty of Little Arkansas in 1865 

 they were detached at their own request 



from the Kiowa and attached to the Chey- 

 enne and Arapaho on account of the un- 

 friendly attitude of the Kiowa toward the 

 whites; but the arrangement had no prac- 

 tical force, and in the treaty of Medicine 

 Lodge, in 1867, they were formally re- 

 united with the Kiowa, although a part of 

 them continued to live with the Chey- 

 enne and Arapaho until after the read- 

 justment at the close of the outbreak of 

 1874-75. In keeping with the general 

 conduct of the tribe they remained peace- 

 able and friendly throughout these 

 troubles. In 1891 their population was 

 325; together with the Kiowa they suf- 

 fered terribly in 1892 from an epidemic 

 of measles and fever, losing more than 

 one-fourth of their number. In 1905 

 they numbered only 155. (j. m.)
