Sequoyah
This Cherokee inventor of the Cherokee alphabet built his log cabin in Sallisaw, Oklahoma, in 1829. Within a few years after he created a system of 86 characters to symbolize the sounds in the language, thousands of Cherokees could read and write their language of birth. The cabin features numerous artifacts linked to him and his achievements.
