History

The names of the cultural groups that inhabited the area between first settlement and the time of European contact are unknown, but several distinct cultural phases have been named by archaeologists, including Archaic period Woodland period and Mississippian culture whose chiefdoms were the cultural predecessors of the Creek people people who inhabited the Tennessee River Valley prior to Cherokee migration into the river's headwaters. This came to be known as the Trail of Tears, as an estimated 4,000 Cherokees died along the way . As European colonists spread into the area, the native populations were forcibly displaced to the south and west, including all Muscogee and Yuchi peoples, the Chickasaw, and Choctaw. Elizabethton is the county seat of Carter County, Tennessee County, Tennessee, United States. When Conquistador explorers first visited Tennessee, led by Hernando de Soto (explorer) de Soto in 1539–43, it was inhabited by tribes of Creek people and Yuchi people.
