GC07 1/9th Quanah Parker (Comanche) £23.75

It has been said that Quanah Parker had two lives.. Born in 1845, the son of the leader of the Kwahadi, the most warlike division of the Comanche tribe, and a white captive, Cynthia Ann Parker, Quanah spent the first half of his life as a ferocious opponent of the white man's expansion and at the head of 700 warriors of allied tribes, struck terror in the Texas Panhandle region. When US troops entered the conflict, Quanah kept his band out on the Staked Plain in Texas for two years and finally surrendered. From that time on he became a powerful influence in leading his people along the "white man's road", encouraging education, house building and agriculture. He died peacefully in 1911 and was buried alongside his mother in Fort Sill, OK. The model depicts Quanah Parker with his hair in braids wrapped in otter fur and wearing a Comanche-style shirt of painted buckskin. Hanging from his scalp lock is the so-called silver hair plates ornament (nickel-silver discs on a hide strap) much favoured in the Southern Plains.
