Ostenaco 1762 by Joshua Reynolds

Someone who is part of the heritage of the area around Prickett's Fort (see below) is Ostenaco - a Cherokee. He visited London where he caused quite a sensation having his portrait done by Reynolds along with other drawings - see the Wikipedia entry for his life story and more pictures.
