Modoc

The Modoc tribe is a group of Native American people living originally in the area which is now northeastern California and central southern Oregon. About 600 members of the tribe currently live on the Klamath Reservation in Oregon, while another 200 live in Oklahoma on the Shawnee Reservation. The Modoc living in Oklahoma are the decendants of the band led by Captain Jack during the Modoc War of 1872 - 1873, while those living in Oregon had no part in that conflict.
