Nickajack was once tne name or an
Important Cherokee town on the bank
or the Tennessee river. The Chero-
KEGS, who had aided the British In the
Revolutionary war and had been well
paid for their assistance, clustered
their wigwams at this point about
l7s0-s2, and the village was known
as one Of the "Chickamauga towns. :"
The meaning of the name is now lost,
though 1t was probably of Cherokee
origin, as 1t occurs in the annals OF
the tribe as mans name. This name
Is also given to a creek and to very
remarkable cave. the latter being situ-
ated very near that point of the south
ern boundary OF Tennessee where II Is
intersected by the line separating the
