Heritage & Traditions

Food

Like most cultures, our traditional meals have played a significant role in creating the bonds that keep us together. As such, we continue to celebrate our heritage by gathering and giving thanks.

Ceremonial Dress

Distinctive in style, our ceremonial dress has great meaning. The circle and cross symbolizes the sun and the stars. And the diamond shaped trim is said to represent a respect for nature.

Choctaw Games

Ishtaboli, or "stickball," is our national sport. But it is far more than just a sporting event. It represents a cultural tradition of great historical and spiritual significance.
