Tussahaw

Tussahaw Creek winds through the wooded uplands of Georgia toward the Ocmulgee River. Its name, recorded on a map in 1821, is of Muskogean origin. The surrounding country preserves traces of Native settlement from many periods, including the Woodland and Mississippian eras. Creeks and their neighbours travelled along paths through this interior region, between the valleys of the Chattahoochee, Flint and Ocmulgee rivers.
