Historical Documentation & Letters
The Talimali Band of the Apalachee Indians of Louisiana has worked with historians, archaeologists, universities, and government officials for decades to document the historical continuity of the Apalachee people in Louisiana.
The following letters and correspondence provide documented evidence of our collaboration with institutions including Northwestern State University, Louisiana State University, the Florida Department of State, and other historical authorities.
These documents support the documented migration of the Apalachee Indians from Spanish Florida to Louisiana following the 1704 diaspora. Learn more on our History of the Apalachee Indians page.
