A little history about the South Texas Indigenous Tribe in which these shards may be from.. 

-The Akokisa were the indigenous tribe of Atakapan who lived in and around what is now the Houston Skyline district in an area including Galveston Bay and the lower Trinity and San Jacinto rivers in Texas. 

-Akokisa people lived in settled villages and built airy structures to cope with their warm climate. Their homes were beehive-shaped and thatched with grass or palmetto leaves.

-For water transportation and fishing, Akokisas carved cypress logs into dugout canoes.

-Both men and women decorated their bodies and faces with tattoos.
