RE: Raids, Battles, And Buffalo Soldiers
Stories in bones. I didn't know about that. It could be like a bone language. Almost like cavemen drawings. Boys were becoming men in their teen years. That is good. I never thought about buffalo bones being in Texas until now. Resteemed.
In a way, Indians thought the blacks were mermaids. Maybe not mermaid, but creatures from the 20,000 leagues under the sea. Ok, maybe I'm joking, but that is new to me. I never thought about what Indian's first impression of the blacks would have been. So, Indians called those blacks the Buffalo Soldiers. Sounds like Superman. Can't stab Superman in the head with a spear, either. I take that as a compliment for the blacks.
haha! howdy there Oatmeal! You are so correct and funny! lol. I was very surprised at why they called them that and you have to wonder why they thought they had such thick skulls? An arrow must have glanced off of someone's head or something!
Thanks so much for reading and commenting!
Blacks are stronger, taller, faster, generally, so it fits.
Howdy again Oatmeal! Yes sir they generally are much more physically gifted, I agree.
