Kayapo Tribe
The Caddos, the Wichitas, and the United States, 1846-1901 by F. Todd Smith,
F. Todd Smith's new narrative picks up the story of these tribes begun in his volume The Caddo Indians: Tribes at the Convergence of Empires, 1542-1854. Their relations with the United States government, the state of Texas (whose role in Indian policy was distinctive because of its previous status as a sovereign nation), kayapo tribe and officials of Indian Territory, as well as their ongoing struggles with other tribes similarly being forced from traditional lands, make compelling reading. Smith documents the process by which the Caddos kayapo tribe and Wichitas increasingly lost control of their own fate kayapo tribe and came to be governed by the whim of the federal government. Smith relates the political history of the two tribes, details life kayapo tribe and agricultural work on the reservation, chronicles federal attempts to introduce an education system to the Indians, kayapo tribe and traces the effect of hostile tribes kayapo tribe and unscrupulous whites on the reservation experiment. Using primary documents, he traces the history of the Wichitas kayapo tribe and Caddos through the Civil War, when they were forced to take refuge in Union-controlled Kansas, to the sharing of reservation land with their former enemies, the Kiowas kayapo tribe and Comanches. He describes in detail the efforts of the two tribes to adapt to white ways, developing a life within the confines of the reservation experience that borrowed from Euro-American culture while retaining many of their own traditions. Throughout the book, Smith convincingly analyzes how the successful adaptation of the tribes to white demands itself undermined their power kayapo tribe and future. In the end, Smith shows, the Caddos kayapo tribe and Wichitas used the Euro-American legal system to fight the last battle - unsuccessfully - losing the verybasis of tribal life, shared land.
