Hattie Tom – 1899
Hattie Tom was a part of the Apache tribe, which is among the Native American tribes situated in the Southwestern end of the United States. The Apache tribe had a lot of groups under its control, such as Lipan, Jicarilla, Chiricahua, Salinero, and Mescalero. Hattie Tom, pictured here, was a famous woman of the tribe back in the early days. This photo was originally captured by Frank Rinehart, a photographer who took pride and passion in capturing the diverse cultural setting of the day.

Apache Woman – 1894
Here we have another Apache woman. We can safely say that during the earlier times when tribe wars were prevalent, there were relatively two types of Apache people. One set was always involved physically in the war and always went against other tribes, and one set lived a straightforward life and never loved the war vibes. The woman pictured here was among the latter set as you can see her dressing being simple, cute, and in line with nature.
