Apaches

Group of Indian tribes belonging to the Athabascan stock, but isolated in Arizona and New Mexico from their northern relations. They have been put on reservations in s. w. Indian Territory, but are restle , warlike, and cruel. In their native home they wore little or no clothing, were omnivorous, ate reptiles, had no religious beliefs, no burial for the dead, no medicine men, and built no houses. They are hairy only on their scalps, lank of body, but capable of great endurance. Their language is deficient grammatically. The Navajos are related, but have better traits; they have a 3,000,000 acre reservation in New Mexico, are farmers, and number ab. 10,000. The name Apache signifies enemy,and has been abundantly supported by atrocities upon the whites.
