Also known as Anadaca, Anduico, Nadaco, Nandacao. The Anadarko Tribe part of the southwestern or Hasinai division of the Caddo Indians. During the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, they lived near what is now the boundary between Nacogdoches and Rusk counties, Texas. In the late 1700a, their population was greatly reduced by disease and warfare. Some of the Anadarkos moved northward and lived along the Sabine River in the area that became Panola County. After the Texas Revolution they migrated westward and, at various times, had settlements along the Brazos River and between the Brazos and Trinity rivers north and northwest of present Waco. In 1854 they were placed on the Brazos Indian Reservation in the future Young County and in 1859 were removed to Indian Territory, now Oklahoma. Today their descendants live near the town of Anadarko (named for these Indians) in Caddo County, Oklahoma.<ref>Thomas N.
