What the Moon-Eyed People Left Behind
The story goes that before the Cherokee came to the Appalachian Mountains; there lived a race of pale people who could only see at night. They had large, round eyes sensitive to daylight, and they built stone walls and earthworks across the valleys. When the Cherokee arrived, they drove the Moon-Eyed People west, and that was that. The pale night-dwellers vanished, and the Cherokee claimed the land.
