NOTE: Our Cherokee Ancestors had a complex and highly developed political and spiritual system in place that was NOT understood by the invading governments. Those invaders tended to simplify our system and rename parts of it to correspond with their own. In some cases, they totally ignored our system and put their own idea of government in its place, refusing to deal with any of our traditional leaders. This is obvious in the explanations of the encounters with Moytoy and also with the way our women were disregarded and the men who did not own the land were consulted for the purpose of trading the land. This Handbook seeks to rectify those misconceptions.
