The Osage Indians have been called the Spartans of the tribes. Average height of a male was 6′. Warriors for sure. Controlled most of Missouri and Arkansas which was the first places the US pushed Indians from the east into before Oklahoma. Lots of fighting among tribes.

When you get to Mountain Home, check out the Wolf House over at Norfolk Arkansas which was also on the Trail of Tears. Couple nice places to eat in the small town; we like the brewery. https://www.arkansasheritage.com/arkansas-preservation/properties/jacob-wolf-house

Pretty cool to see a John Wayne saddle! I always enjoyed watching the westerns with him in the show!
