They first became known to the French about 1690, and according to La Harjie their villages in 1719 were n. of the Haiiiai. During the disturV)ances between the Spaniards and French in the 18th century the Na- caniche seem to have al)andoned their more northerly villages and, about 1760, to have concentrated on Trinity r., near the road leading to New Mexico. The tribe was included in the Texas census of 1790 as among those which were under the jurisdiction of Nacogdoches. The Na- caniche were exposed to the same adverse influences that destroyed so large a part of their kindred. They clung to the Na- bedache during the trying experiences of the first half of the 19th century, and if any survive they are with the Caddo (q. v.) on the Wichita res., Okla. A stream in E. Nacogdoches co., Texas, preserves their name. (. p. ) Nacaniche.—Census of 1790 in Tex. State Arcliives. Nicondiche.—Tonti (1690) in French, Hist. Coll. La., I, 71, 1846. Nacau.
