德克萨斯人曾經称满月为「卡曼奇月亮」。卡曼奇曾是最大的印地安部落,戰士驍勇兇殘,經常在滿月的夜晚襲擊白人定居點。如今,在德克薩斯,除了一些卡曼奇地名,已經少有他們的痕跡。要去奧克拉荷馬的印地安保護區才能找到他們的下落。1/n
上月初路過凯什,小鎮位于奥克拉荷马印第安保护区,是卡曼奇人最后的酋长夸那帕克度过后半生的地方。夸那帕克的父亲是卡曼奇酋长,母亲是白人,名叫辛西娅帕克,十岁时被卡曼奇人掳获,长大后嫁给酋长的儿子,生了两儿一女,其中一子就是夸那帕克。2/n
辛西娅帕克被卡曼奇人掠走後,倖存的親戚一直在尋找她。德克薩斯加入美國後,武裝力量增強,能深入卡曼奇人的腹地征討。在一次征討中,辛西亞帕克和小女儿被俘獲。她已经几乎不会讲英语了,几次试图逃回卡曼奇部落找失散的兩個兒子,未遂。女儿得流感病逝后,她绝食而亡。3/n
1874年秋,她兒子夸那帕克在德克萨斯北部的帕魯杜魯峽谷被美军打败,损失了1500匹马和所有过冬口粮,被迫投降,率部落余众进入奥克拉荷马的印第安保护区,得知母亲和妹妹已经在奧斯丁亡故。4/n
归顺美國政府后,夸那帕克在凯什盖了一栋房子,称之为“星宅“,托人洗印了母亲的大幅照片,挂在卧室墙上。都是一个半世纪前的事了。当年曾经繁华的卡曼奇小镇只剩下锈迹斑斑的两面招牌。5/n
那夜投宿的客栈街对面是一家灯火辉煌的枪店。翻看老照片,有一張是夸那帕克的女兒,也就是辛西亞帕克的孫女。
