Pakanahuili

Pakanahuili, known in English as Standing Peachtree, was a Native settlement and trading place at the junction of Peachtree Creek and the Chattahoochee River. The river and the paths crossing this wooded country connected it with other towns of the southeastern interior. During the War of 1812, Georgia built Fort Peachtree at the site to watch the Creek country. The old settlement stood on land that would soon be claimed and distributed by the expanding state.
