The history of North America as written by non-Natives is incomplete, for it is written by those who think they are conquerors. The conqueror is the person who looks outside himself to make order rather than making clear his own mind; therefore, all that he sees and speaks is based on the lies of pride and confusion. The Native people, particularly the Tsalagi people, had a philosphy and a written language probably before the people of Europe were emerging from their caves. The calendar of the Americas is the oldest calendar in the world and one of the most accurate. The first people to understand the significance of zero were the Native American people, through careful meditation and observation of the universe. (Voices of Our Ancestors )
In the very early 1800’s Chief Old Billy Bowleggs, designated the Indian Creek Tribe as the keepers of the history for all Chickamauga Cherokee. As an extension of this duty, our tribe has been creating historically accurate educational programs for many years in both Alabama and Florida.
We educate children and adults through school programs, our website, tribal newsletters, public demonstrations, books and story fires that detail the telling of historical actions of this great nation while documenting the unique events pertaining to our people and the United States Government. We are an independent people who can document our history well before the American Revolution.
