The Waco Indians grew crops like corn, squash, beans, melons, and pumpkins and ate these crops as well as meat. They wore clothes made from tanned animal hides, including dresses, shirts, loincloths and leggings decorated with elk teeth for women. They traded dried food and handmade items in place of money. Today the Waco tribe lives in Oklahoma and speaks English, Caddo, and Wichita, with a population of around 2,500 people.
