I am learning so much in these videos. I have a little trouble finding them but when I do they certainly captivate my attention

Thanks we're in the driftwood tx area...lots of artifacts here in the onion creek headwaters. 😍 the channel

I enjoy your videos, so interesting thankyou.

Another perfectly explained part of the early history of Texas.. For me, some of the battles between sedentary and hunter gathers seem almost to be 'wars' over carbohydrates.

Not like this video exactly encouraged or provided food for intelligent thinking on that subject.

This is an amazing documentary

I live in San Miguel de Allende and I always wondered why the oldest buildings had 50 foot high stone walls because you'd have to be really motivated to make them that high. Then I found out that the chichimecans were cannibals and I thought... Yeah , that would do it

Right. Well to be fair, it's hardly like this video didn't say that! Feed Texas bigots... as if our own government isn't good enough at that. But I didn't see where any of the official Texas history pages mentioned eating their babies!

Do you have any data on the bedias tribe interactions from the De Le Salle expeditions near present day Montgomery county Texas? I live next to an old dig site that A&M dug about 40 years ago and I want to go metal detecting. It’s my neighbors property. I find arrow heads but idk if they were napped in the area so I figure they were apart of the fur trade

Deep in the ❤️

IT'S just a shame that none of these ORIGINAL natives exist anymore. They either died-out, or mixed-in to White and Black Americans, or Mexicans who came-up after their population began to decline. As an American with Caddo ancestry, I was surprised that the narrator did not mention the Caddo by their original name, which was, Kadohadacho. That was THEIR WORD to describe themselves. My Native American ancestry came from northeast Texas and generations of them must be buried there. I would like to visit before my time on earth is done.

Amazing videos

Isn't the "sports area" you mentioned at 23:20 actually Cahokia's Woodhenge?

We are exactly the same now. I live in Texas. Texas is in the United States of America. To everywhere else on Earth they would think of me as an American. That is not what I am. I live in Waxahachie Texas. My family has been on this soil for almost two centuries. That is what I am.

Deer aren't plentiful on the Edwards plateau? You've never been here, have you? Deer are thicker than squirrels here. Great herds of them graze on our lawns. If you walk through the woods you will run into them multiple times, and their tracks are everywhere. One time three of them were grazing on our lawn, which they wouldn't have done unless the dogs got out and went somewhere... I had to track those dogs through the woods. Teh woods were wall to wall deer tracks, plenty of these must be coyote tracks, a coyote never had an extra ounce of fat anywhere... aha... double trail of big fat dog prints. I think the Coahuiltecans would find your description of them hilarious - and there are plenty of them around. Lotta Hispanic people here look just like your drawings of them. Killing Infant??!!!!! OMG. Honest to God. I will have to find a real life history of the Coahuiltecans. Damn! OMG. I think Wikipedia said they simply moved around to exploit seasonal food resources, of which there was plenty in its season - in EVERY season. AND, they ranged from the Rio Grande through the hill country, and had a lot of cultural diversity. I did find other versions of what you said, mainly in standard Texas governmental history resources... you took your picture from one of them. PLEASE do more research than this. This is the best Texas history I've ever come across, it's a shame when you mess up something this badly. The government of Texas is Republican. They exist to be mean and racist. It often seems like half of what Texas Republicans do and say is primarily, sometimes exclusively, about proving they are just as mean and cruel as it is possible to be. I can't imagine who of your historical caliber would believe at face value a word they say about anything, let alone Indians. I first encountered this story about Texas Indians ca 1500, in a kids' book for Evangelical Christians, that described hunters and gatherers in general, who lived miserable lives of no food, because they hadn't yet become Christian. "Walk the World's Rim", about a boy/ young man who traveled with them, who had begun I think as a slave. "They" were a small group of survivors of that group of Spanish people who toured the southwest. My sister had this book for her son the year she home schooled him. I just ordered a second hand copy, it's such a specimen. I could also point out there was a more than normally major drought around that time, causing food to become scarce everywhere, it would have disproportionately affected the hill country. NOONE else mentioned these people eating their CHILDREN...!!!! OMG. Help me Jesus! You know, there is an actual Coahuiltecan organization I can write and tell them what you said about them.... but I doubt they've the patience to educate another White person. Please help this poor White person - what is the truth of what your people had to eat in the 15th century. I think I'm going to go with common sense and the complex information I can already see on that.

Are you talking about the Indigenous cultures institute? I came to this video to learn more about the Coahuiltecans but was disappointed as you are. Having worked and experienced the sanctity of the San Marcos Springs they often spent time at. I would suggest the author to do some research on the 3 sacred springs depicted in the white shaman panel.

You quickly disqualify yourself as someone worth listening to, when you condemn the Texas legislature in the way that you did, and then go on to demean a person for simply being white.

The Norse settled in Texas area multiple centuries before the 1400's and long before those you call native Americans. Also there is evidence that the ancient Hebrew were here as far back as 400 B.C. that escaped the Babylonian & Assyrian conquests.

Long before the Norsk and Hebrews there were extra-terrestrians from Mars and Venus. Not to forget New Zealandian Swedes.

A lot of self speculation coming from a European minded person. The indigenous people were much more intelligent than you give them credit. You need to do better research before you do these videos.
