Kialegee Tribal Town
The Kialegee Tribal Town is a federally recognized Native American tribe in Oklahoma, as well as a traditional township within the former Muscogee Creek Confederacy in the American Southeast. Tribal members pride themselves on retaining their traditions and many still speak their traditional Muscogee language. The name "Kialegee" comes from the Muscogee word, ''eka-lache'', meaning "head left."〔Clark 173〕
==Government==
The Kialegee Tribal Town is headquartered in Wetumka, Oklahoma. Of 439 enrolled tribal members, 429 live within the state of Oklahoma. Its tribal jurisdictional area falls within Hughes, McIntosh, Okfuskee counties.〔 The tribe's elected ''mekko'' or chief is Jeremiah Hobia, who succeeded Tiger Hobia. The mekko's term is for two years. Tiger Hobia succeeded Jennie Lillard.〔"Kialegee Festival, ''American Indian Cultural Center and Museum Newsletter.'' 2009 Q4.〕
Enrollment in the tribe required an individual to be full-blood Native American: half to full-blood Muscogee Creek and up to one-half Indian of any other tribe.〔 Documentation for enrollment follows matrilineal descent.〔 Any descendant of a female Kialegee tribal member is automatically eligible for tribal membership. Spouses of Kialegee tribal members may petition for membership. In special circumstances, any full-blood Indian may petition the tribe for enrollment as an "Adopted Member."〔
The Kialegee Tribal Town operates its own tribal courts. It has an environmental educational program for youth, the Kialegee Tribal Town's Environmental "Kub" Program.〔
