The Wamapoke Tribe is a Native American tribe located in Pawnee, Indiana. They originally owned the land, but Reverend Luther Howell of Terre Haute planted a flag in the ground. The tribe maintains the Olde Wamapoke Tribal Shop, located in the downtown shopping district. The Wamapoke tribe was a small group of 50 - 100, known for their distinctive circular patterned basket weavings and scalpings. They were also known to use possums as currency. During the 7 day battle, their chief was shot 102 times by the cavalry.
