The Karankawa I’m your host! Kicking Bird!

What is the nastiest thing you have ever eaten (on purpose)? If you had to live as a Texas Indian, which region would you have picked?

The Karankawa The Karankawa were hunter-gatherers who specialized in fishing. What region did they live in? The Karankawa Caddo Indians Galveston Island Gulf o’ Mexico

Karankawa Fast Facts Very tall for the time period: many were 6 feet or more I am Big Moak, the Karankawa. Lived in bands of 30; whole families packed into one canoe with their stuff whenever they moved to a new location Nomads: followed the food

Stay away from my daddy’s canoe! Karankawa Food Karankawa were hunter-gatherers. In the cool months they ate fish along the coast. In the hot months, they hunted deer, small animals, and ate nuts, berries, etc. Canoes were their most important tools- they used them for fishing and transportation. Stay away from my daddy’s canoe!

The Karankawa also made nets, which they used to catch marine creatures. They ate a lot of oysters and clams.

Canoes, ready for fishing, fighting, and traveling to a new campsite. I’m a wikiup: a light, portable house. Why did the K Indians need light, portable houses? hee-hee Karankawa bands had two chiefs: One ran the business of the tribe, the other was in charge during times of war. Dogs: Karankawa means “dog lovers”. Piles of oyster shells. This is one way that scientists in modern times find ancient K campsites. Be on the lookout for canoe thieves...

There’s the little canoe thief! Get him! Karankawa loved their children, and spoiled them! The Karankawa also made necklaces of shells and lots of pottery.

What else are the Karankawa remembered for? These guys were tall!

The Karankawa Interesting Facts: Most Remembered For: Being tall, being cannibals (even though they rarely actually ate people), being the first tribe that explorers met The Karankawa Food: Fish, oysters, clams, deer, rabbits, roots, berries, nuts, other Indians. Shelter: Wikiup A light, portable house made of sticks with grass or hides draped over it. Galveston Island Gulf o’ Mexico
