Biography: 

The eight-year-old unnamed son of Moketubbe would have succeeded his father as head of the Chickasaw Indian clan. Although his unexpected death is not explicitly identified as homicide, there are contextual suggestions that he was murdered by his second cousin, Ikkemotubbe, as part of Ikkemottube's plan to wrest control of the tribe from Moketubbe.
