Ikkemotubbe

Ikkemotubbe,
Chickasaw chief in Faulkner's fiction, variously presented as the son or nephew, but always the heir, of Issetibbeha, and himself the sire of Sam Fathers. He sells the Yoknapatawpha land that becomes Sutpen's Hundred and the McCaslin family property. He is mentioned in The Sound and the Fury, Requiem for a Nun, The Bear, and other works, and in the early story “Red Leaves,” where his family relationships are inconsistent with those in other accounts.
