Indian Drum by Bobby Killgo (First Grade)
Indians

Indian tribes first brought art and music to our area. The Caddo tribe started out on the Red River around Louisiana and Arkansas. The Caddo people lived in cone shaped huts made of grass.

The early Caddo indians were mound builders. They made beautiful pottery. The Caddo indians were from 700 A.D.to 1300 A.D. The late Caddo lived in dome shaped huts. They weaved mats and rugs. The late Caddo no longer made mounds like their ancestors. The late Caddo were from 1500 AD to 1600 AD. Then later the Wichita's came to this area in the 1700's to the 1800's. The Wichita lived in big grass huts that looked like a dome. The Wichita's moved into indian territory in the mid 1800. The earliest settlers were afraid of Indian music because they thought it might mean war. Unfortunately, not much of their music was kept in our culture.
