Most Cherokees are Christian, usually Southern Baptists. Many of these Cherokee Christians also consider themselves traditionalists at the same time. While there do remain quite a few herbal healers, there's not really anything like a shaman. By some accounts (anthropologist James Mooney, who remains controversial) the Cherokee killed off all their medicine people back in the eighteenth century.


I've noticed this and other posts that refer to the books by James Mooney as misleading and false.    I'm new here and do not know much about his history, but I'm curious.   What is it that people do not like about James Mooney?
   
Thanks
