them. They were quite hospitable, but when a white person
visited them they threw away the scraps of food and washed
everything used by the white person.4
Mention should also be made here of the Indians who were
the immediate neighbors of the lower Trinity tribes. The Caddo
lived to the northeast and were gathered into three or four
loose confederations. The Hasinai, often termed Tejas or Texas
by the Spaniards, occupied the larger part of the area of present
Nacogdoches, Rusk, Cherokee, and Houston counties. The
Kadohadacho, or Caddo proper, were situated at the bend of the
Red River in Arkansas and Texas. A third group of them lived
still farther south.49 To the southwest along the Gulf Coast were
the Karankawa.
As has been seen, the Indians of the lower Trinity traded back
and forth and their customs and practices were similar in many
ways."0 These various and closely related tribes occupied the
area of the lower Trinity when the white man appeared.
