The Karankawa for Interp

The purpose of this series is to provide volunteers at Goliad State Park and Historic Site with basic information on the Karankawa that they might use to answer visitors questions. The idea is to save them from going through a stack of books and papers. As much as possible the videos were kept short to allow viewers to watch at their convenience. Part 4 Non-material culture was divided into two sections mainly because of the time spent on cannibalism. Although intended for a specific audience, if other parks, sites, museums, or even history buffs can use it, so much the better. A special thanks to my Gal Ginny B.  Her help and inspiration were invaluable to me.
