Interesting. But, I doubt there's much that would show up on a metal detector. Probably no gold--Indians quickly learned to tell foraging Spaniards that it was another tribe that had all the gold.

It's the foraging Spaniards that had the metal I'm thinking about!

Still interesting from a historical and cultural perspective, though.

I live about 90 mile west of there. Some pretty large settlements around here as well. Nothing that big though. The first hand account of the battle of Crooked Creek that I read spoke of several thousand friendly natives living just north of the confluence of Cavalry Creek and Cimarron river, in what is now Comanche County. That was in 1859. It's mostly farm ground now. Some good finds there.
