Sequoyah was a system of writing developed by the Cherokee silversmith Sequoyah in the early 19th century. It comprised a syllabary, allowing the Cherokee language to be written and read, which significantly contributed to literacy among the Cherokee people. This system enabled the preservation of Cherokee culture and facilitated communication and education within the community. Sequoyah's invention is considered one of the most remarkable achievements in indigenous literacy.
Sequoyah invented a Cherokee alphabet of eighty-five or eighty-six characters that allowed every sound used in Cherokee communication to be written down. In 1821 Sequoyah demonstrated his invention before the Cherokee council, which approved his work.
