Northeast Indiana | from Wikipedia: "This story of the origin of the canyons has been commonplace since the 1940s, but the formations in the canyons are at least partially natural.[citation needed] Although there were probably a few early arrivals before 1825, the first heavy influx of settlers in Stewart County only came after the Treaty of Indian Springs (1825), by which the Creek Indians were forced to cede all their lands east of the Chattahoochee River. Evidence of the existence of the canyons at this time includes their mention in a deed by James S. Lunsford to William Tatam from 1836"
I guess the native americans weren't the best stewards since it evidently started on their watch | |
