4.9/5 (31358 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from The Last of the Mus-Qua-Kies, Vol. 17 But such is no overdrawn picture of Indian life as it is presented by a little band of Musquakies, as they have resided in the heart of the great and progressive State of Iowa for half a century. There have been many erroneous notions in vogue as to the meaning of the name and the date of its origin. A story has been current that the name originated at the outbreak of the Black Hawk war, and that it signifies "coward," and was applied to the Foxes by the Sacs as a term of reproach because they refused to take part in the hostilities led by Black Hawk, chief of the Sacs. No interpretation could be further from the truth. The name is of much earlier origin, and is believed to have been the ancient name used among Indians to distinguish this tribe from other tribes before they came in contact with the white man. Literally translated, the name means red earth, and every Musquakie interrogated on the subject will maintain with great earnestness that when the Indian race was created, his tribe was the first created, was made of red earth, and as soon as the Ke-che Man-i-to, or Great Spirit, had created them, he pronounced the word, "Musquakie."
