In order to provide a sound and well-rounded existence for those now residing on lands of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians and for future generations,, a comprehensive in- ventory of existing resources,, services and development is the first step to be taken in the planning process. The inventory should provide an overview of the conditions on the Eastern Cherokee Reservation. Methodology The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, having lands scattered in five counties in Western North Carolina and population scattered over four counties causes great inaccuracy when using a step-down process (as required under the contract for this report) using the U.S. Census 1970 figures. If one were to use the 1970 Census for population count, giving the maximum benefit of doubt under the heading of "other" and further

Hearths in caves have been dated to 23,000 B.C. at sites on the coast of Venezuela. Native people say they have always been here. The Cherokee people say that the first man and first woman, Kanati and Selu, lived at Shining Rock, near present-day Waynesville, N.C. The old people also say that the first Cherokee village was Kituwah, located around the Kituwah Mound, which was purchased in 1997 by the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians to become once again part of tribal lands. 10,000 BC-8,000 BC Paleo-Indian Period: People were present in North Carolina throughout this period, making seasonal rounds for hunting and gathering. Continuous occupation from 12,000 BC has been documented at Williams Island near Chattanooga, Tennessee and at some Cherokee town sites in North Carolina, including Kituhwa and Ravensford.

Trawick Ward Research Laboratories of Archaeology The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill 1998 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This inventory of archaeological collections at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is the culmination of a concerted effort that began in 1990, even before the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) was passed by Congress. Its successful completion would not have been possible without the help of many individuals and institutions, whose contributions the authors wish to acknowledge here. First and foremost, we thank the many student assistants who worked tirelessly on this project over the past six years. Robyn Astin, Dean Foster and Heather Pearcy began the project by organizing the collections in preparation for the inventory. Later, Elizabeth Monahan assisted in the identification of the skeletal remains, while Jane Eastman identified and described the funerary objects. Thomas Maher and Timothy Mooney carried out all the digital photography. Patricia Samford helped arrange the visits by tribal representatives, and, along with Arlena

It also takes a village to raise a graduate student. There are many whom I need to express my utmost gratitude for fostering my success in the last decade. I first want to thank the Scholarship Committee in the OSU Department of History for their continued support that enabled me to continue my education despite financial difficulties. Throughout my time at Oklahoma State University, I have been lucky to have worked with several professors. Drs. Moses, McCoy, Cooper, and Huston provided wonderful encouragement when I was a new student. I am thankful for the time Dr. Brian Frehner served as my advisor. A special thank you to Dr. Bryans for serving as my last advisor and staying with me through the entire process.

Abandoned, I must cling to my self-recognition as my salvation. - Wendy Moore Ledwell, a Lumbee Indian' The Lumbee of North Carolina are Indians who are federally recognized in form but not in substance. The 40,000-member tribe traces their roots to the Lost Colony of Sir Walter Raleigh and to Indian tribes, such as the Hatteras, Cherokee and Cheraw. Thus, they are Indian, but look white.

Various leaders were appointed by mutual consent of the towns to represent the nation to British, sometimes French, and later American authorities. The title the Cherokee used was First Beloved Man,[3] "Beloved Man" being the true translation of the title "Uku", which the English translated as "Chief", and his only real function was to serve as focal point for negotiations with Europeans. 1.
