Re Sequoyah, I managed to find: http://digital.library.okstate.edu/chronicles/v008/v008p149.html which has a definitive date of Oct 15, 1825 for the official adoption by the Cherokee Nation of Sequoyah's alphabet. We'll add that to the calendar. -S On Wed, May 12, 2010 at 8:46 AM, Roger Mills <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > --- On Wed, 5/12/10, Charlie <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > >> Sad that we do not know the exact >> birth and death dates of Sequoyah so that we could remember >> him. >> > Do we know the date of the first publication using his syllabary? > What about the Cree writing system (syllabary?) in Canada?
