The Alabama-Coushatta Tribe is located in the Big Thicket of East Texas, on the oldest of all Texas’ Indian Reservations. In 1993 the names of 893 Alabama-Coushattas were recorded on the tribal roll, of whom approximately 500 lived on the reservation. The tribe has lived in the Big Thicket area since the early 1800’s.

The Alabama-Coushatta Tribe are a very proud people and work hard to hold on to their culture while learning to adjust to the modern world of technology. A large majority of its members speak the Native language and create traditional crafts. To keep these alive, a high priority is placed on teaching the Alabama-Coushatta language by holding classes taught by the elders of the Tribe.
