Koasati Tribe
The Koasati are an Upper Creek tribe with a dialect similar to Alibamu. In the 18th century, they primarily resided near the Alabama River, later relocating to the Tombigbee River after the British acquisition of west Florida. Over time, some settled in eastern Texas, while others returned to Alabama. Historical accounts indicate fluctuating population numbers, with the Koasati remaining known for their industrious and peaceful nature. Presently, descendants inhabit various areas in Oklahoma within the Creek Nation, including towns named in their honor.
