Cherokee Environment

Where people of the Cherokee nation lived, in what is now North and South Carolina and Georgia, was a great place to live. It never got very cold - even in winter it hardly ever snowed - and it never got that hot either. There was plenty of water, all year round.

Mostly people lived in the pine forests, along the Allegheny river and other smaller rivers, and in the mountains. There were plenty of deer and small animals like rabbits and squirrels to hunt, and lots of fish in the rivers.
