A Little HistoryWichita tradition indicated that the tribe migrated southward from north and east.� In 1850, the Wichita had moved from near the Red River into Wichita Mountains region with their main villiage a short distance from what is now Fort Sill, Oklahoma.� In 1859, the Wichita moved to a permanent site south of the Canadian River near the present Caddo-Grady County line.� A reservation was established in 1872, consisting of 743,610 acres and known as the Wichita-Caddo Reservation. |
