Native American History Markers in Texas
Long before Texas had a name, it was home to the Caddo, the Tonkawa, the Apache, the Comanche, the Kiowa, and many other peoples. Texas historical markers record villages, trails, treaties, and battles across the state. These are the ones Duane tells out loud, with the official marker text alongside each story.
961 stories across 210 Texas counties, each with the official marker text alongside Duane's telling.
