It would be hard to imagine the most famous Native American tribes, the Sioux or Lakota, Cheyenne, Comanche and famous battles like Little Bighorn and the Adobe Walls without the spirited mustang horses they rode. In terms of how long people have inhabited the Americas however, horses are a very recent addition to their cultures, only being introduced by the Spanish expeditions into North America in the 17th Century. With the Great Pueblo Revolt of 1680 whole herds escaped onto the Great Plains and the secret weapon of the Spaniards had been exposed to the Native tribes that lived in its vicinity. Even before this the Apache, Geronimo's ancestors, had been raiding the Pueblo settlements under Spanish protection and had acquired horses for themselves, becoming the first mounted tribe in America's history. Soon more would follow. Most famous of these were the Comanche, Quannah Parker's ancestors, who by all accounts were the most skilled riders as documented by the accounts of the artist George Catlin. By the 18th Century horses had been traded and raided right the way into the northern reaches of the Great Plains in what's now Canada among the Blackfeet Nations who referred to them as "big dogs" and later "elk dogs" as they'd never before encountered such creatures until their Shoshone enemies used them in battle against them. Further Reading: Empire of the Summer Moon - S. C. Gwynne (This is the book I'm reading at the moment and is a great introduction ot the history of the Comanche tribe of the Southern Plains. An account is also given of how the Apaches first obtained and learned to use horses and then how the Comanches did.I would highly recommend this even if you're not well versed in Native American History.) Comanches: The History of a People - T. R. Fehrenbach (This is a far more in depth study of the Comanche and more broadly other tribes and trends that affected them with detailed sections on interactions with both the Spanish and their horses and enemy tribes that had French backing.) Blackfeet: Raiders of the Northwestern Plains - J. C. Ewers (This covers the Blackfeet Tribe who hailed from Wyoming and Montana into Alberta in modern-day Canada. It covers the early interaction with horses and the enemy tribes that came in from the East as well.)
