Sequoyah's Cabin | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The site consists of Sequoyah's 1829 log cabin enclosed in a protective native stone cover building built in 1936 by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) surrounded by a 10 acre park. Although Sequoyah did not know how to read or write he developed a working Syllabary that enabled the entire Cherokee Nation to become literate within a very short period of time. At the museum today Cherokee history and basics of his Syllabary's use are taught, and exhibits and artifacts of early Cherokee life are on display. In 1966, Sequoyah's Cabin was designated a National Historic Landmark.
