Dzithinahndé

The Dzithinahndé were a Mescalero Apache group whose name has been translated as the people of the mountain ridges. Their country included the mountains west and south of the Pecos River, extending toward northern Chihuahua and Coahuila. They maintained ties with neighboring Lipan Apache communities, sometimes camping together as a single group. These mountain ranges and dry basins formed part of a wider Apache homeland stretching across the lands around the Rio Grande.
