Excerpt from Caddolina: A Story of the Caddo Tribe The Caddo were divided into two Nations, one occupying Western Kansas and Nebraska; but the early home of the Southern Caddo was on lower Red River in North Louisiana, and adjoining por tions of Texas, Arkansas and Oklahoma.

This book grew out of an exhibition about Dellinger’s life and work that was curated by Bob Mainfort at the Old State House Museum in Little Rock. The book includes a detailed biography of Dellinger, as well as a discussion of his work, an overview of major collecting efforts in Arkansas by out-of-state institutions, and a history of the University of Arkansas Museum. Lavishly illustrated with over two hundred images of artifacts, this book will now permit archaeologists to see some of the pieces Dellinger’s lifetime of work saved and preserved.
