Re-Created Indian Village
Open To Public Wednesday
A re-created 200-year-old Chero
kee Indian village, authentic in
svery detail, will have its official
ipening Wednesday at one o'clock
The village will he located on a
<itc near the Mountainside Theatre.
The project was conceived by
fhe Cherokee Historical Association
is part of an ever-expanding pro
tram to perpetuate the history and
raditions of the Cehrokee Indians
if the Great Smokies. It will be
known as Oconaluftee Indian Vil
age. named for an ancient Chero
kpe town that existed four miles
ivest of Cherokee at the present
site of Birdtown.
Visitors may take a tour of the
tillage daily and Sunday through
3ctober from 1 p.m. until 5 p.m.
Seginning in 1953 it will operate
from May through October.
Unqiuc in conception, the village
vill be a "living museum" where
"hcrokce Indian men. women and
children will turn hack the clock
wo hundred years. There, wearing
luthentic Cherokee dress of the
1750 period, they will daily carry
>ut the ancient way of living, dis
maying arts in basketry, pottery,
ind weapon-making that are almost
ost.
The village contains five struc
ures of authentic ancient design
ind an open air temple where tri
>al rituals were held. Ringing
he compound is a palisade of more
I
than 2,000 locust poles.
These structures include three
types of homes in which the Chero
kee lived. The oldest reproduction
is one in which the walls are |
woven from river cane over which
a plaster of river clay was applied. .
Other structures were erected
with logs, one notched, the other
hewn, and both chinked with clay.
None of the structures have win
dows and all the floors are earthen. ,
Largest of the buildings is the (
council house, the men's ceremon
ial and political structure. It was |
here the Cherokee warfare and (
ball play were planned, an area
generally closed to women. In (
fact, it was a mans refuge. It was
here the Cherokee made all their ,
tribal decisions, where the wise old
men of the tribe passed on to the
younger members of the tribe the
lore and traditions of their race.
On the benches and around the j
walls in the council house are many <
of the things that pertain only to i
men's ritual activities and men's (
pastimes Here hang hows and i
arrows and guns, the hand-carved I
wood masks used in the booger and
eagle dances There also are the I
eagle dance wands- -the precious I
