    Actual PDF printed and physical pages 9, 10: The report names Yamparika and four printed variants as a historical Comanche band. Its range sentence crosses the page break and names the Arkansas River; the passage does not resolve a particular modern state for this outline. Historical name/relationship check only; no present-government or present-membership claim.
