The Kiowa are a Native American tribe. Their traditional music is strongly focused on dancing, such as the Sun Dance (k'aw-tow), when the people gather to build a lodge out of cottonwood trees; courtship is a traditional part of k'aw-tow celebrations, and this facet is often reflected in the music. A dance called the Brush Dance commemorates these gatherings.
