Don't know anything about them actually .....what happened to them?
they supposedly went extinct as a tribe in 1870, the more "civilized" ones
(Copoatiques) were sent to Oklahoma to live on reservations with the rest of the civilized tribes. A few others died with the Texicans in the battle for Texas indepence and the really wild ones were picked off by settlers along the coast.
What always interested me was the fact that according to Spanish explorers they originally didn't look like natives Americans were supposed to. They stood between 6 & 7 feet tall were very dark had course hair and were covered in tatoos and peircings. Like nekkid Dennis Rodmans all over the coast. I just thought it was weird that such a small gene pool was surviving here on the coast.
They were also said to be very experienced hunting dog breeders
