were also very good traders. The Spanish used to hold trade fairs in the city of
Taos and in Santa Fe in what is now New Mexico. Records from trade fairs in old
Taos and Santa Fe ... describe the Comanches at the trade fairs. They were well
dressed. The Comanche leaders often wore fine European clothes, with many silver
conchos and fine leather boots. - illustrated - By R E Moore -
