 Cherokee - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Cherokee People as a whole reacted unfavorably to the actions of the UKB regarding Chad Smith's banishment, and the event was widely viewed as a political embarassment and publicity stunt by the UKB.
It is now believed that a more ancient Syllabary that predated Sequoyah and may have inspired his great work for the Cherokee people was handed down through the Ah-ni-ku-ta-ni, an ancient priesthood of the Cherokee people.
Modern Cherokee Societies, with the exception of the UKB, are true democratic societies which no longer allow banishment of tribal members.
