"Map of the Lands, Granted to the Cherokee Indians, by the State of North Carolina, Under the Act of 1783...", U.S. Government

This small map shows the Cherokee lands of western North Carolina. It locates a number of Cherokee villages including Tawuntoe, Sugar Town, Eones and Tuckalechee to name a few. The map also notes a "Division Line in 1809 between the Upper and Lower Towns," referring to a boundary within the Cherokee nation delineating those who wanted to establish a government (upper towns) and those that wanted to live traditionally (lower towns). The map was originally issued at the back of a 233-page House report concerning "Cherokee Disturbances" (not present here).
