The Geier Indians or Geies were an 18th-century group of Indigenous people in what became Mexico and the United States. Little is known about this group.




17th century


In 1675, a Native group, recorded as the Papuliquier (a combination of the names Pacpul and Geier) visited a Spanish town of Monclova, Coahuila.
The Franciscan priest Damián Massanet wrote that the Geier and five other Native groups had camped along the Frio River, near San Antonio in 1690.




18th century


The Geier were last mentioned in 1708, while they were still living in the Frio River valley. They did not join any of the Spanish missions.




Language


Damián Massanet reported that the Geier spoke the Coahuiltecan language.
