18 SIOUAN TRIBES OF THE EAST. [ethnology 



word " Paskagiiiia." There are noue uow among either of these tribes, 

 but the Caddo have a distinct recollectiou of them as neighbors when 

 they lived lower down on Red river in Texas and Louisiana. In 1784, 

 eighty-live years after their mention by Iberville, we find them in 

 Louisiana, still living with the Biloxi (Imlay, 2). In 1829 they were 

 mentioned as living in connection with the Biloxi and Caddo on Red 

 river, about on the eastern border of Texas. They Avere then reported 

 to number 111, while the Biloxi were reported at only 65, which, if cor- 

 rect, would show that sixty years ago the Paskagula were the more 

 important of the two (Schoolcraft, 2). They can hardly have become 

 extinct within so short a period, and it is i)robable that they, as well 

 as the Biloxi, still exist among the Alabama aud other small tribes 

 already referred to as now living in eastern Texas, where enough of 

 their language may yet be obtained to settle their linguistic affinity. 



The Chozetta, mentioned in 1090 as living on Pasca.^oula river in 

 connection with the Paskagula, Biloxi, and Moctobi (Margry, 3), may 

 also have been of Siouan stock.
