What do Cherokee Indian villages look like?

In: Cherokee Indians [Edit categories]

Answer:

Tsalagi (Cherokee) villages normally contained one central building with seven sides used for ceremonial purposes. Surrounding this would be the normal "Asi" (or Wattle) homes. The village would normally include a 'ball field" where they played the original version of a game now known as Lacrosse, as well as a dance circle (sometimes both of these were the same). Some larger villages had wooden palisades (tall wooden walls). It is interesting to note that the homes would all face east, and the dance circle was always entered from the east.
