Why did native Americans paint their faces and ponies before going into battle?
Personal face and body paint was normally the result of a vision quest when a specific design would be revealed to a warrior, along with an animal or bird protector. The warrior, having seen a supernatural vision of a man painted in a certain way, would use the same design himself and would also use the feathers, bones, claws or stuffed skin of the animal or bird as a war "medicine".
Horse painting was different; it was usually a record of the war exploits of the warrior, showing black stripes for the number of coups he counted, horse tracks for stolen horses, red patches for wounds received and so on. The Plains tribes would often paint a circle around each eye of their horse to improve its sight, or zig-zag lightning marks down its legs to make it run faster.
The link below takes you to a photograph of a warrior's favourite war-horse painted and decorated for battle. It has coup-stripes down its leg, a butterfly for speed, a cloth mask with attached antelope horns (again to increase speed) - this horse is probably Hidatsa or Crow, not Apache as it is described:
From what i have read a Comamche Coil is a rope that when around the horses belly. When the Indians of the plains rode bareback they sliped there knees under the rope and held on the rope.
How do you say Maryland or kim in Cherokee?
You cannot say "Maryland" because the Tsalagi language has no "Y."
Kim would be pronounced as "K-a-Mm"
If you mean translation, then: both would be about the same in translation. Mary would be dropped (as it has no meaning), and left with only "Land" Kim is taken to its root form of "Land or Field" - so both would be Tlo-ge-s-i (Tlow-gay-seeh) (or Dirt in conceptual translation).
What were the celebrations of the Comanche tribe?
There were very few communal ceremonies or celebrations among the Comanche; most were for individuals, such as a young man's "vision seeking" ritual when he would seek a powerful spirit vision in some remote spot, fasting and thirsting for several days. There was absolutely nothing that equates to birthdays, Christmas or Easter among white Europeans.
There was a Beaver Ceremony (also known as "Big Tail Medicine") and an Eagle Dance, but the Comanche never adopted the Sun Dance ritual of other Plains tribes. The Beaver Ceremony was mainly used for healing a sick person.
Simple customs such as offering a small portion of food about to be eaten to the spirits were very common; warriors "sunned" their shields while in camp by hanging them on a spear stuck into the ground - thereby increasing the supernatural protective power of the shield; there was no marriage ceremony and people were free to marry within their own clan.
What Is The Comanches Housing?

How do you draw tribal designs for a Comanche teepee?
There were no tribal designs on Comanche tipis. Most tipis (around 90%) had no decoration of any kind - only an important warrior, a band or war chief or a medicine man might have the right to paint his tipi and then the designs would be entirely specific to that one person.
An early painting by George Catlin of Comanche tipis shows one with "calumet" designs painted in red - these are sacred long-stemmed pipes decorated with eagle feathers and carried by a war party leader.
Photographs of Comanche tipis taken throughout the 19th century show that almost all have no painted designs.

What is the Comanche band which roamed the texas panhandle?
The subject of Comanche bands is highly complex and difficult because each was known by many different names and they changed location all the time, making exact identification almost impossible.

Other bands known to have been in that area at different times include:

What are the tribe symbols of Comanche Indians?
Native American tribes historically did not have symbols - they did not need them because they could instantly tell the difference between their own people and other tribes by language, hair styles, costume and details of costume decoration.
Today many tribes have developed symbols for use on flags and on Internet websites.
The modern Comanche use a circular design split into two areas (blue and yellow) by a vertical wavy line, with the silhouette of a mounted warrior in the yellow portion. Around the edge are the words "Comanche Nation Lords of the Plains".
This symbol would be completely meaningless to a Comanche warrior of, say, 1860.
