The Tunica-Biloxi Indian Tribe (Tunica: Yoroniku-Halayihku), formerly known as the Tunica-Biloxi Indian Tribe of Louisiana, is a federally recognized tribe of primarily Tunica and Biloxi people, located in east central Louisiana. Descendants of Ofo (Siouan-speakers), Avoyel, and Choctaw are also enrolled in the tribe.
In the 21st century, the people speak mostly English and French. Many live on the Tunica-Biloxi Indian Reservation (31°06′48″N 92°03′13″W) in central Avoyelles Parish, just south of the city of Marksville, Louisiana, and overlapping its boundaries. The Reservation is 1.682 km2 (0.649 sq mi).
The 2010 census lists 951 persons self-identified as at least partly of Tunica-Biloxi, with 669 of those identifying as solely of Tunica-Biloxi ancestry.
