Old world roots of the Cherokee : how DNA, ancient alphabets and religion explain the origins of America's largest Indian nation / Donald N. Yates ; foreword by Richard Mack Bettis.
"This work traces the origins of the Cherokee to the third century B.C.E. and follows their migrations through the Americas. Using a combination of DNA analysis, historical research, and classical philology, it uncovers the Jewish and Eastern Mediterranean ancestry of the Cherokee and reveals that they originally spoke Greek before adopting the Iroquoian language of their Haudenosaunee allies"--Provided by publisher.
