The Caddo Nation, the governing body of the
Caddo people, is headquartered in Binger, Oklahoma. Tamara Francis is currently (2019) the elected chairman of the Tribal Council.
For more information on the Caddo Nation, its departments,
four-year vision for the future, and a schedule of upcoming
events, visit their website at https://caddo.xyz/.
We at Texas Beyond History also
completed a major collaborative effort with the Caddo, the
creation of a series of interrelated exhibits telling the story
of the Caddo peoples from ancestral times to present day. Entitled
Tejas: The Life and Times of the Caddo Indians,
the massive thematic presentation includes sections on
ancestral peoples and archeology, an interactive resource
and site map of the four-state Caddo homeland, galleries of
Caddo pottery, and a section written by Caddo historian Cecile
Elkins Carter, "Caddo Voices: Past and Present,"
as well as correlated children's and teachers resources. View
