Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

  • Please respect others' copyrights; do not copy and paste the contents from webpages directly.
  • Please use a neutral point of view when editing articles; this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
  • If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
  • Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as: copyrighted text, advertisement messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Adding such unreasonable information or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, and will result in your account being blocked.

The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page.

I think if you'll check you will find that the Witchitas were more often called Pawnee Picts than Panis Piques—in reference to their tattoos (see Pict) and the fact that in early times they were first identified as a branch of the Pawnees, another Caddoan speaking tribe from the eastern Great Plains. They were not a Southern tribe, but from the Soutern Plains portion of the Southwest United States. See Five Civilized Tribes for the Southern Indians relocated to Oklahoma. For a citation see Wheelock, T.B., "Journal of Col. Dodge's Expedition from Ft. Gibson to Pawnee Pict Village." American State Papers, Class V, Military Affairs, (Washington, 1860) , pp. 373-382. —Janitor 21:17, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A further note: Col. Dodge's expedition in 1834 was the first American contact with the Plains Indians (Devil's Canyon (Oklahoma)). —Janitor 21:26, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
