Comanches
an aboriginal tribe of North American Indians, whose hunting grounds were the regions now known as Texas and northern Mexico. They were very numerous between 1700 and 1750, having a tribal organization under chiefs of their own selection. They hunted on horseback, and were estimated to number 400,000 when first encountered by the whites. They have dwindled to about 2,000 and now live on a reservation opened in 1901 in Oklahoma.
