![["A new monument at the Cherokee Nation complex in Tahlequah honors early tribal leaders and was inspired by James Tyner's work to locate the graves of important Cherokees. Tyner, along with his sister, has identified over 1,500 graves of Indians in northeastern Oklahoma and compiled extensive historical records. The monument includes the names of 256 tribal leaders and heroes, and highlights the importance of preserving Cherokee history and honoring those who came before."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_30_14_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Cherokee,%201973%20Jan.%20-%201978%20Aug.,%201973-1978/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_30_14_0020_thumbnail.jpg "Honoring Cherokee Leaders: A Monument of History and Legacy")

![["The trust led by Keeler, not the Cherokee tribe, owns Tsa-La-Gi Inn in Tahlequah. The trust was created to cut costs in construction through tax credits. Keeler signed the deed as principal chief and used the money for investments after per capita payments to tribal members. The trust, Jelanuno, also holds the property of the Cherokee Nation Historical Society and controls the Tsa-La-Gi Theater. The tribe and the public generally believe the tribe owns the properties, but legal documents show otherwise."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_30_14_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Cherokee,%201973%20Jan.%20-%201978%20Aug.,%201973-1978/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_30_14_0031_thumbnail.jpg "The Hidden Ownership of Tsa-La-Gi Inn")
