Cherokee Path : ウィキペディア英語版 | Cherokee Path
The Cherokee Path (or Keowee path) was the primary route from Charleston to Columbia, South Carolina in Colonial America, connecting all of the Cherokee territories. ==History== In the 17th century the Cherokee Path was used by English and French fur traders. The path was mapped in 1730 by George Hunter, the Surveyor-General of the Province of South Carolina. At that time it ran from Charlestown to the colonial settlement of Ninety Six, then to Fort Prince George and the Cherokee village of Keowee, the principal town of the Cherokee Lower settlements (in present day Oconee, Greenville, Pickens and Anderson counties). From Keowee, the path branched out into the Unaka Mountains, usually following streams and valleys, to Clayton, Georgia and up to Franklin and Murphy in North Carolina (the Middle settlements) and across to the Cherokee towns in Tennessee (the Overhill settlements). Fort Loudoun, constructed by South Carolina troops in 1756, was along the path. Cherokee Path was used as a military road during the American Revolution.
