Hello all- Looks like I may be spending a couple more months here in OK, which is good cept for missing my SO of course. I've always been a history fan as well as very very interested in NA culture and history. Obviously OK has arich and proud NA background and I just would like to find out even more about it. I've been to Tahlequah and the Cherokee Capitol, been to Ft gibson, the Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa, but I want to know where I can go in this great state to get a real good feel for the NA culture. What cities or events are there for someone to learn more about it? Obviously there has to be a lot of things I've missed, and would love to check out in the near future. THanks all for your help.

Anadarko would be one place LeaveWI. It's in the Southwestern part of the state.

Anadarko, Oklahoma - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Anadarko is named after the Nadaco, a Caddoan band now affiliated with the Caddo Nation. The term "nadako" means place of the bumblebees in the Caddo language. Incidentally, the Caddo are a federally recognized American Indian tribal entity for which Caddo County is named; Caddo County is part of the former reservation of the Caddo/Wichita/Western Delaware (aka Absentee Delaware), prior to allotment in the post-Dawes Allotment Era."

Take a drive to Okmulgee, Oklahoma. Check out the Creek Council House Museum, for history of my tribe, the Muscogee Creek.
