About this map

Tsa La Gi Indian Village stands as a prominent cultural landmark just south of Tahlequah, anchoring a landscape where the Illinois River meets the northern reaches of Tenkiller Ferry Lake. This modern survey reveals a region defined by its narrow hollows and high bluffs, including Boy Scout Bluff and Alum Bluff, which overlook the river's winding path toward Wildcat Point. The settlement patterns here are deeply tied to the terrain, with communities like Park Hill and Pettit situated among numerous historic burial sites such as Worcester Mission Cem and Ross Cem.

Transport and topography converge at the southern end of the map, where the lake expands into Pettit Bay. Notable landmarks like Park Hill Mtn, Short Mtn, and Mahaney Mtn rise above the drainage basins of Greenleaf Creek and Caney Creek. The intricate network of local roads, such as S Park Hill Rd and S Welling Rd, provides access to both established residential areas like Green Country Estates and more remote areas like Minning Camp Hollow.
