Barking Water is Wewoka, OK


Wewoka

Founded by John Horse and Black Seminoles in the late 1880s, Wewoka is the current capital of the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma. In the spring of 1849, Horse and a group of Black Seminoles founded a settlement near modern-day Wewoka. They established a community located at the falls of a small stream, lying in the fertile lands between the North and South Canadian Rivers. The steady rush of water over the falls gave rise to the name We-Wo-Ka – meaning “Barking Water” in the Mvskoke (Seminole) language. In 1907 Wewoka became part of the state of Oklahoma, which was admitted to the union.
