The Apaches are a Native American tribe that inhabited the desert valley of the Colorado River. Their lands reached all the way to the source of the Gila River, which once was the republic of Mexico. The Apaches were wanderers, traveling all the way to California, Oregon and Washington. Before the introduction of horses during the Spanish invasion, the Apaches walked. The Apache were known as conquerors, and their tribes were made up of hunters, priests, and warriors. Today, there are many ruins and artifacts remaining from their religious ceremonies. There is also evidence of many caves in the area, in which, the Apache often lived.
