Now I will talk about the history of mammoth cave national park. One of the main points is the day it was made and that is July 1, 1941. That was 61 years ago that mammoth cave national park was established. In these upcoming paragraphs I will talk about the African American history m Now I will talk the African American history at mammoth cave national park. African Americans played a big role in the making of cave tour routes. The first African Americans were slaves. They were also guides. Each slave guide eventually saw their freedom. During their life they may have never realized the importance of their life. However, today they are not viewed as slaves or lower class citizens, they are legends. Now I will talk about the first modern owners of the cave. The first modern owner of the caves was Valentine Simons who purchased the property in 1798. The property was purchased in 1810 by Charles Wilkins, who put the caves to use for the mining of saltpeter, and ingredient used to make gun powder that was used in the war of 1812 that are some owners of mammoth cave national park.
