According to Morgan (Ancient Society, 99, 162, 1877) the Choctaw were divided into two phratries, each including 4 gentes, as follows: A. Kushapokla (Divided people)
1. Kushiksa (Reed)
2. Lawokla
3. Lulakiksa
4. Linoklusha

Watakihulata (Beloved people)
1. Chufaniksa (Beloved people)
2. Iskulani (Small people)
3. Chito (Large people)
4. Shakchukla (Crayfish people)
Besides these, mention is made of a gens named Urihesahe (Wright in Ind. Aff. Rep. 1843, 348), which has not been identified. Morgan's list is probably far from complete.
