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.

  • Harrah's Cherokee Casino Resort Goes Bowling with Brunswick
    Harrah’s Cherokee Casino Resort Goes Bowling with Brunswick As the gaming industry matures and becomes increasingly competitive, casinos are looking for expansion plans that complement existing programs and diversify offerings. It’s more important than ever for resorts to increase the length of stay, attract new demographics, and create revenue streams outside of gaming. At the same time, many tribes are looking to offer more amenities to the tribal community. To achieve those goals, Harrah’s Cherokee Casino Resort in Cherokee, NC, recently broke ground on a $13 million bowling entertainment center. The project is being financed by a partnership between the resort and the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians. “The goal for our bowling family entertainment center is to serve both gaming customers and the local community,” said Brooks Robinson, Harrah’s Cherokee regional vice president of resort operations. “We expect it to serve our existing customer base and attract new gaming and non-gaming customers across a wide demographic.” Brunswick Bowling Products has offered support every step of the way, according to Robinson. “Our partners at Brunswick have provided valuable assistance in the facility design and project planning,” said Robinson. “They will be involved throughout the construction process assisting with project management.” “Brunswick began meeting with the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians “We expect the bowling community almost ten years ago,” said Eric Lindfors, new business center to attract new gaming director at Brunswick. “Members of the community were interested in creating a bowling venue for the community’s youth, families, and and non-gaming customers.” seniors (many of whom bowl in the Cherokee County Senior Olympics).

The continuous anLl growing interest so signally manifest in all departments of church work, the corresponLling facilities with which every enterprise is carried to success, together with the enthusiasm of numbers, and respectful recognition of their power on every hand, all combined have enabled the committee to present a Year Book of the Disciples of Christ that will challenge the respect and confiLlence of all concerneLl.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Writing these acknowledgements is an enjoyable, yet intimidating task. Enjoyable, because there are many people who have helped me throughout this journey, and I am thrilled to be able to thank them publicly at long last. Intimidating, because I know that whatever I write, it will not be sufficient to express the depths of gratitude I feel for the new perspectives I have gained through their patient mentoring, support, and fine examples. It seems to me, as I’m sure it does to others, that this dissertation took a long time to complete, but this is a complicated story with many influences and viewpoints to consider. I couldn’t have finished any sooner without missing critical pieces of the story. One truism I learned through the process of this investigation is that once you awaken history from its slumber, it becomes a living, dynamic creature with a trajectory and mind of its own.

  • The Business of Being Cherokee
    THE BUSINESS OF BEING CHEROKEE: AN EXAMINATION OF THE TRANSFORMATIVE POWER AND VISION OF SMALL BUSINESSES ON THE QUALLA BOUNDARY OF THE EASTERN BAND OF CHEROKEE INDIANS Courtney Lewis A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Anthropology Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Valerie Lambert, PhD James Peacock, PhD Theda Perdue, PhD Rudi Colloredo-Mansfeld, PhD Michael Lambert, PhD ©2012 Courtney Lewis ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT COURTNEY LEWIS: The Business of Being Cherokee: An Examination of the Transformative Power and Vision of Small Businesses on the Qualla Boundary of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (Under the direction of Valerie Lambert) This dissertation examines the crucial socio-economic impact of small businesses and small business owners on the Qualla Boundary of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians. It addresses the questions of how boundaries that Native Nations must work within—land, legal, and representational—impact these small business owners, how these boundaries are transformed, and how these transformations can literally and figuratively alter the landscape of a Native Nation. Within these boundaries, I discuss the EBCI governmental programs initiated specifically to encourage and aid small business owners. I then critically explore the characteristics of these businesses and business owners (products/services offered, education provided through employee training and public information, previous business experience, etc.), as well as how issues of representation and the EBCI’s casino bear upon business ownership. This work furthermore chronicles these businesses’ challenges during the Great Recession, thereby documenting the means by which these critical components of our worldwide economy buttress themselves against economic shocks.

  • Testimony of Principal Chief Patrick Lambert for the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians Before the House Indian and Alaska Native Affairs Subcommittee
    TESTIMONY OF PRINCIPAL CHIEF PATRICK LAMBERT FOR THE EASTERN BAND OF CHEROKEE INDIANS BEFORE THE HOUSE INDIAN AND ALASKA NATIVE AFFAIRS SUBCOMMITTEE HEARING ON “THE EASTERN BAND CHEROKEE HISTORIC LANDS REACQUISITION ACT” (H.R. 3599) February 24, 2016 Chairman Young and Ranking Democrat Ruiz, I appreciate the opportunity to provide this testimony of behalf of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians. I want to first thank this Committee for holding a hearing on this bill and express my particular appreciation to Congressman Chuck Fleischmann, our friend from Tennessee, who introduced this bill and has championed it. I also want to thank our Representative, Mark Meadows, for his friendship, respect for the Eastern Band, and strong support for this bill. The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians is a Tribal Nation recognized by the United States as a sovereign with inherent rights of self-government, like the several states and foreign nations. The place of the Cherokee People within the history of the United States is often told, but usually as though we are a People of the past. Our true story is one of thriving, survival, and thriving again. Before the U.S. Army forcibly removed Cherokee People along the Trail of Tears, the unified Cherokee Nation governed and occupied lands that covered several states that now include our Reservation in Western North Carolina and the State of Tennessee. The Eastern Band of Cherokee is compromised of the 15,000 or so descendants of the Cherokees who avoided forced removal on the Trail of Tears, or returned home from the Indian Territory after surviving the removal and returning to their aboriginal homelands.
