Detailed explanation-1: -The Karankawa Indians are an American Indian cultural group whose traditional homelands are located along Texas’s Gulf Coast from Galveston Bay southwestwardly to Corpus Christi Bay. The name Karankawa became the accepted designation for several groups of coastal people who shared a common language and culture.
Detailed explanation-2: -Transportation. Since they lived so close to water, such as bay, lagoons, and gulfs, one of their main sources of transportation was the canoe. The Karankawas adapted to their environment by using the water to their advantage. The only other way they got around was foot.
Detailed explanation-3: -Today, we know that most of these Native Americans belonged to one of two cultures: the Atakapa or the Karankawa. The Atakapas lived in the northern part of the coast. The Karankawas lived on the southern part of the coast. Both Atakapas and Karankawas hunted ducks and geese and ate turtles.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Coahuiltecans, despite the single overarching name, represented many different ethnic groups, tribes, and nations native of the South Texas and Northeast Mexico region. Historic accounts describe these people as highly mobile family units of hunters and gatherers that resided near rivers and streams.
