Tribe
The tribe this steed is based on were located in the great plains of the northern United States. Their language is an “isolate” meaning it shares no roots with other languages. They also practiced the Sun Dance. The Kiowa were enemies of the Cheyenne and allies of the Apaches and the Comanche. The Kiowa’s way of life ended with the decimation of the Buffalo. They now live in communities in southwestern Oklahoma. In the present day, Kiowa are known for art and literature. The Kiowa have also developed a written component for their language, which has ensured its survival.
