What kind of food do atakapans Indians eat?

The Atakapa (really Ishak) people lived along the Gulf of Mexico in the area that became Texas. They were probably related to the Chitimacha and Tunica groups, although language connections are not proven. They had access both to the coast and to the Plains inland, giving a wide variety of foodstuffs.The Atakapas hunted buffalo at first on foot, using stealth and short bows, then after about 1720 on horses. They used the meat for food and the hides for robes which were often painted with intricate tribal designs. Deer skins provided clothing and deer meat was a favourite food. Other food sources were fish, eggs, shellfish, wild plants and maize (Indian corn) grown in small fields by the women.
