The Koitsenko (Kiowa: Qkoie-Tsain-Gah, lit. ''Principal Dogs" or "Real Dogs'') was a group of the ten greatest warriors of the Kiowa tribe as a whole, from all bands. One was Satank who died while being taken to trial for the Warren Wagon Train Raid. The Koitsenko were elected out of the various military societies of the Kiowa, the "Dog Soldiers." They were elected by all the members of all the warrior societies of the entire tribe.[1]
