…yet there were no wild hogs.
The Caddo also traded for various resources across North America.
From 1300-1700A.D., Caddo Culture declined.
Soon Europeans began exploring.
Spain and France both colonized and explored North America.
Spaniards brought horses…
Frenchmen brought weapons…
Both introduced a new religion…
and many unwelcomed germs and diseases!
Spain built Missions in east Texas…
and the King’s Highway…
while France established trading posts.
Some Europeans believed all Native Americans were savages, but this was untrue! Many tribes like the Caddo
were friendly and peaceful.
After settlers claimed their lands, the Caddo negotiated for peace.
Caddo culture and history still thrives today!!!
Thanks to dedicated professionals…
like archaeologists and historians.
Looting is the greatest threat to archaeology!
It is also against the law!!!
The staff at Caddo Mounds State Historic Site are deeply committed to preserving and sharing
Caddo culture and history.
The end.
