Summary
"This work traces the origins of the Cherokee to the third century B.C.E. and follows their migrations through the Americas. Using a combination of DNA analysis, historical research, and classical philology, it uncovers the Jewish and Eastern Mediterranean ancestry of the Cherokee and reveals that they originally spoke Greek before adopting the Iroquoian language of their Haudenosaunee allies"--Provided by publisher.
