This is the old Cherokee Nation Courthouse building
as it stands today in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. This is the front
which faces West. It is bordered on the West side by main street
which is called Muskogee ave, North side by Delaware which is
 a one way street, East side is Water street and South street is
Keetowah. It was first built in the 1870 as the Cherokee Capitol
of  Indian Territory. The earlier building was built of logs.
This is the South and East (back) of the Cherokee
Nation Court house. This is the site of the meeting place
of the Cherokee government when they first arrived in
Indian Territory in 1839.
This is me sitting inside the Gazebo located on the
front lawn of the Cherokee Nation Courthouse square.
Note to the left of me and behind in the distance, the old
Cherokee Nation Supreme Court building can be seen. I
have included a picture of it below.
This is the old Cherokee Supreme Court building.
This is the East and North side. The front faced North
and is located just South of the Cherokee Nation Court house
on the square. It was built in 1845.
