This information is for new members of Texas Gulf Coast Tia-Piah. These traditions are only a guideline because traditions and etiquette vary so much from one circumstance to another, from one tribe to another. So proceed with caution at every dance, observe others and ask questions if you are not sure of what to do. Someone will be glad to tell you if they know.
The Kiowa Gourd Dance is the traditional dance of the Ta-Pe-Go Warrior Society which was one of several men's societies in the Kiowa Tribe. The word Tiah-pe-go refers in the past to two
words, a bush called SKUNKBERRY and a BRAVE.
