I don´t know if you are familiar with a Norwegian cientist named Helge Ingstad. He found out and proved the relationship between apache language and the language of the native tribes in the North. So the Apaches in the south (New Mexico, Arizona ,,)had clear relation with the native indian triebes in the North. There was also clear indications in their myths and stories.

it would be a honour to be related to such great native americans,its a tragedy that the white men stole the land from them..

[Norapache]

...yes, people who trusted the white mans promises of respecting their territories and independence! It is a great shame in the history of USA!

Geronimo Goyale was born near the Gila River in Southeastern New Mexico. Victorio was born near the Ojo Caliente in Southern NM. Victorio was not a Nakaye. He was Chihene Nde yes Apaches spoke and speak Spanish.

Listen, if she does really have pics of Cochise, they should be released. It would be a true honor to see his face. There are pics of Naiche and Taza, but not The Great!
