˜Chitimacha Indian Culture and History

As a complement to our Chitimacha language information, here is our collection of indexed links about the Chitimacha tribe and their society. Please note that Chitimachas and other American Indians are living people with a present and a future as well as a past. Chitimacha history is interesting and important, but the Chitimacha Indians are still here today, too, and we try to feature modern writers as well as traditional folklore, contemporary art as well as museum pieces, and the life and struggles of today as well as the tragedies of yesterday. Please contact us if you have an Chitimacha link to add.
