Description

The Kituhwa Mound at Ferguson Field in Swain County, North Carolina, in the southeastern United States. According to Cherokee oral tradition, Kituhwa was their oldest village. The ancient Cherokee called themselves "Ani-Kituhwa'hi." The base of the mound runs roughly across the center of the photograph, and there is a slight difference in the shade of green of the grass on the mound and the grass in the foreground. The mound is located off US-19 northeast of Bryson City. A sign marks the entrance.
