Sadammo
The Sadammo (also Caitsodammo, Sadamon, Sadujam,[1] Sadamona, Sadujames[2]) were a Native American tribe, possibly Apache, living in the region of present-day Texas.
The term appears in documents from the 17th and 18th centuries, which describe the Sadammo as enemies of the Hasinai and Kadohadacho, and allies of the Nadamins.[1] The Sadammo are most often considered to be Apache, but some writers have identified them with the Toyals, Nadamins,[1] or Tayos.[2]
17th-century documents describe the Sadammo as a numerous people, living in houses covered with buffalo hide. They owned horses, mules, and iron tools.[3]
