Description This would be what i think a comanche from around 1700-1800. The Comanche were the dominant people of the south west roughly from 1750 to 1850. They extracted resources and labour from their euro-american and indian neighbours. without fully recognizing it, the spaniards, french, mexicans and anglo americans were all restrained and overshadowed in the continents center by an indigenous empire. the Comanche empire. By the end of 1851 smallpox epidemic followed by a cholera epidemic shrunk the number of Comanches from an estimated 20.000 to fewer than 12.000.

It's made of waterbased clay that i had baked. After that I added the buffalo headress. Using ironwire, plaster and waterbased clay which dries in the air.

I have to admit I am impressed. I know I don't know alot about comanche but I do know 2 things. 1. they wore horns instead of headresses. few seem to know this and THANK YOU for noticing ^^. 2 I have noticed many of the pure blood have a lack of upper lip...you noticed this aswell some it seems. Not only is it good but also well researched ^^

from what I know they wore warbonnets too, just like maybe all of the other plain indians tribes did. But Maybe they started doing that only after about 1850
