The Band

The Atakapa Ishak Nation is unrecognized tribe in Louisiana.

"The Atakapan people are a Southeastern culture of Native American tribes who spoke Atakapa and historically lived along the Gulf of Mexico. They called themselves the Ishak, pronounced "ee-SHAK", which translates as "The People" and further designated themselves within the tribe as "The Sunrise People" and "The Sunset People". Descendants still live in Louisiana and Texas. In 2006 the Atakapa-Ishak met as one nation." http://www.atakapa-ishak.org/
