Abstract:

The Caddos once inhabited a vast area that is now included in eastern Texas
and parts of Louisiana, Arkansas, and Oklahoma. Their descendants have lived
in southwestern Oklahoma since the middle of the 19th century. Their language
is distantly related to Pawnee, Arikara, Witchita, and Kitsai within the
Caddoan language family. Its polysynthetic verb morphology was described in an
earlier work by Lynette Melnar. Chafe’s work expands on that description,
adding nouns and adjectives, a collection of representative texts, and an
English-Caddo dictionary. 

This book is also available on Amazon.
