    The name of the Native American tribe whose land we live on: Patiri
    Patiri Indians
    "This small tribe, which is now regarded as Atakapan in language,lived in southeastern Texas during the eighteenth century. The Patiris seem to have ranged over the territory that lay between that of the Bidai and the Akokisa Indians.
    This would place them in the area between Houston and Huntsville....
    After this [1751] the Patiris dropped out of sight. They probably lost their ethnic identity among the Bidais and Akokisas, who survived into the nineteenth century...."
    FROM Patiri Indians (Handbook of Texas / Texas State Historical Assn.)
    Atakapa
    "...The Patiri or Petaros lived north of the San Jacinto River valley between the Bidai to the north and the Akokisa in the south of Texas. This places them in the Piney Woods of East Texas, west of the Trinity River in the area between Houston and Huntsville. Little is known about them; perhaps they were a southern Bidai band....." (From an extensive Wikipedia article on the Atakapa which includes these two lines regarding the Patiri. Also includes a drawing of an Atakapa person. There were many indigenous bands / tribes who spoke the Atakapan language.
