Tawehash Indian Tribe
The Tawehash Indians were a Caddoan
tribe of Oklahoma, relatives of the Wichita and
Caddo tribes.
They were sometimes also known as the Taovaya, Taovayes, or Towash. The Tawehash no longer exist as a distinct
tribe. Most of them merged into the Wichita tribe, where most Tawehash descendants still live today.
Their language was never properly
recorded, but was probably either a dialect of Wichita or a closely related language.
