Cherokee Tale
A Cherokee clan mothers contacts an archeologist—who has an excellent academic reputation and capabilities based on her unique DNA—to let her know where to find a domed city more than twelve thousand years old that will prove the Cherokee people came from Cappadocia. And prevent repeating the mistakes of the past that destroyed it.
History is said to be written by the winners, but the thing is we can only read what was written from around four thousand years ago. The other scripts—if they are scripts—haven’t been deciphered.
American Indian history makes for a curious read. Do we really know when the American continent was peopled? Or how those people arrived? DNA shows some might have been in North America for forty thousand years. Current wisdom states those people arrived by crossing the frozen land bridge. Keep in mind that is a theory, not a fact.
Different Indian tribes have varying mythology. Most myths have some basis of truth in them. Did we come from another planet? Or were there civilizations on this planet thousands of years ago?
The matrilineal Cherokees were not all wiped out during their march along the “Trail of Tears”. There is another East Coast branch that survived by becoming citizens of the state.
Other than the speculative fantasy elements, “Cherokee Tale” is factual history, seasoned with the author’s family lore, which tells an alternative history that could be.
