War Trail along the Holston - This was a difficult time for the Chickamagua People. The colonials kept moving into areas they were told to stay out of. Dragging Canoe had told them to stay out of Cherokee country and he and his people would leave them alone. The invading colonials only cared about more land. So they ignored his warning. When this happened the Chickamaguas (made up of several different tribes) went on the War path killing colonials up and down the Holston River. This event takes place just before my painting of the Confrontation. A group of Warriors have followed a path to a rock outcropping that overlooks the river. When they see Settlers have moved in,this starts a bloody, War Trail along the Holston. Art & Illustration : Talmadge Davis
