The Cherokee had their own alphabet; the Cherokees called them 'talking leaves'. The Choctaw created their alphabet based on English characters called in Choctaw: Chahta Anumpa Holisso. There are three version of the alphabet: old, linguistic, and a modern. Rev. Cyrus Byington complied a comprehensive dictionary and Allen Wright created the old alphabet. Both created literature and grammar books. Gideon Lincecum, a setter from Georgia, created a 500 page history of Choctaw traditions entirely in the Choctaw language during the 1800s.
