Years: 1731 - 1731
February
The Tunica, after the attack and plundering of their village at Angola, move a few miles away in 1731 to the Trudeau site in West Feliciana Parish.
The Tunica continue to prosper, practicing their vocation as traders and middlemen.
They expand on a relatively new business as horse traders.
The French, for at least a decade, have become dependent on the Tunica for supplying the valuable animals.
Because of the expense of shipping horses from France, the French find it cheaper to buy them from the Tunica, who acquire the horses through a native trade network that has its origin in the Spanish colony of Mexico.
