Other East Texas Indian Tribes
The locations of several East Texas Indian tribes, including the Noadiche and Nasayaya, are poorly documented, with historical references providing scant information. The Noadiche, allies of the Cenis, were likely situated west of the Angelina River near Rusk County, and may correspond to the Nabiti. The Nacao tribe is believed to have lived near the Nacogdoche mission. Notably, the historical sites of the Nabedache, Neche, Hainai, Nacogdoche, and Nasoni are established as significant locations within the Hasinai group, meriting further archaeological investigation.
