Description
In the early 18th century, the Plains Apache were living in the area of the upper Missouri River, already a band within the Kiowa nation, only differentiated by language and ethnicty. It is believed that the Plains Apache entered this alliance with the Kiowa for mutual protection against hostile tribes.
It is recorded that many Kiowa Apache did not learn the Kiowa language, preferring to communicate with their allies using the sophisticated Plains Indian Sign Language, at which the Kiowa were past masters (having probably devised much of the system) (Wikipedia).
Complete 1996 after 8.58 hours spread over 6 days.
