Description: The Appalachian Warriors' Path (1607-1744) was used by the Iroquois of the north to head south for trade or make war in Virginia and the Carolinas. The English acquired the Warriors' Path through treaties. Known as the Philadelphia Wagon Road (1744-1774); also as the Great Philadelphia Wagon Road, Great Road, etc., immigrants used this road to enter the back country and often branched off onto the Wilderness Road to move further west.
