The Judaculla Rock
"Judaculla Rock is a curvilinear-shaped outcrop of soapstone with quarry scars and petroglyphs. . . . in the mountains of western North Carolina. . . .
The petroglyph boulder occurs on an old trail that links the old Cherokee townhouse at Cullowhee, or "Juthcullah's Place," with Judaculla's reputed townhouse within Tannasee Bald (also known as Tsunegûñyĭ). From a traditional perspective, contemporary Cherokees continue to regard the boulder as spiritually significant."
