THE YUCHI ARE A TRIBE WHO LIVED IN THE EASTERN RIVER OF TENNESSEE RIVER. THEY MOVED SOUTH TO ALABAMA, GEORGIA, AND SOUTH CAROLINA. THEY SUFFERED FATALITIES DUE TO EPIDEMIC DISEASES. THE SURVIVING YUCHI IN THE 1830'S WERE REMOVED TO INDIAN TERRITORY.
TODAY THEY LIVE IN NORTHEASTERN OKLAHOMA AND ARE CITIZENS OF FEDERAL RECOGNITION OF THE MUSKOGEAN CREEK NATION. THE YUCHI ARE INTERPRETED AS SITUATED YONDER.
THEIR ORIGIN HAS BEEN A MYSTERY. THEIR YUCHI LANGUAGE CLOSELY REMEMBER. BOTH HISTORY AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL EVIDENCE EXISTS TO DOCUMENT SEVERAL TOWNS OF THE 1700'S. CHESTOWEE WAS ONE IN SOUTHERN TENNESSEE. THE CHEROKEE DESTROYED IT.
