Geniocane people
The Geniocane people were a Native American tribe in the area of present-day Texas. They lived in an arroyo of the Edwards Plateau north of the Rio Grande,[1] where they may have cultivated mustang grapes.[2] Their name is also spelled Giniacane or Heniocane.[1]
Juan Larios and Fernando del Bosque encountered the Geniocane on a 1675 expedition.[2] At that time, the Geniocane were at war with the Gueiquesale,[1] and allied with the Bibits and Yoricas under a Bobole chief.[3]
