About the Pueblo
The Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana, also known as the Koasati people, is a federally recognized Native American tribe located in the western part of the state. Historically, the Coushatta were known for their remarkable craftsmanship, particularly in creating rivercane baskets, pottery, and wood carvings. Rivercane, a type of bamboo-like plant, was carefully harvested and woven into intricate baskets, which were both functional and artistic. These baskets were used for a variety of purposes, including carrying food and tools, and were prized for their durability and beauty.
