Rabbit Town. Given as an Upper Creek town in the census enumeration of 1832. l 
As the rabbit is always a subject for jest among the Creeks it was suggested to me that 
this may have been nothing more than a nickname. 
Satapo. In the report by Vandera of Pardo's expedition into the interior this 
appears as a settlement, probably Creek, on Tennessee River. 2 
Secharlecha ("Under a blackjack tree"). A Lower Creek settlement mentioned 
frequently in early documents, probably a branch of Kasihta. 
St. Taffery's. Given in the Ga. Col. Docs, as a small Creek town. 3 
Talwa hadjo ("Crazy Town"). An Upper Creek town on Cahawba River, far to 
the northwest of the other Creek towns. 4 
Talipsehogy (''Two talewa plants standing together," the talewa being used in 
making dyes). This appears in the census enumeration of 1832 and also in School- 
craft. 5 
Talis hatchie Town. "An Upper Creek town, in Calhoun County, Alabama, 
east of a branch of Tallasehatchee Creek, 3 miles southwest of Jacksonville." 6 
Tallapoosa. Several early maps give a town of this name, and Adair in one place, 
and only one, refers to a "Tallapoose town" within a day's journey of Fort Toulouse. 7 
It is possible that it was an Alabama town, for the name is either Alabama or Choctaw, 
and the town may have given its name to the river. It seems to mean "pulverized 
stones," or "sand." In some maps this town seems to be placed on the Coosa (see 
pi. 4). 
Tchuko lako ("Big house," i. e., square ground). Gatschet has mistakenly entered 
two towns of this name in one of his lists of Creek towns. 8 The proper name of each 
of these is Tcahki lako, "Big ford." 
Tohowogly. Given along with Coweta as a Lower Creek town 8 to 10 miles below 
the falls of the Chattahoochee. 9 Perhaps it is intended for Sawokli. 
Turkey Creek. "An Indian town, in Jefferson County, on Turkey Creek, north 
of Trussville." 10 This was in territory dominated by the Creek Indians and hence 
was probably settled by people of that nation. 
Uncuaula. An Upper Creek town in the western part of Coosa County, on Coosa 
River. 11 
Wallhal. On the Purcell map (pi. 7). The name may be intended for Eufaula, 
or this may have been a settlement on Wallahatchee Creek, Elmore County, Alabama. 
Weyolla. On the Popple map (pi. 4) and some later maps; probably a very 
much distorted form of the name of some well-known town. 
THE YUCHI 
Our history of those tribes constituting the Creek Confederacy will 
not be complete without some mention of three alien peoples which 
were incorporated with it at a comparatively recent period. These 
are the Yuchi, the Natchez, and the Shawnee. 
The Yuchi have attracted considerable attention owing to the fact 
that they were one of the very few small groups in the eastern part
