Hey guys! In this episode you are getting a two for one! First Ian tells us the history of a sacred place to the Cherokee people, Hot Springs NC. It's a beautiful small town known for its natural hot springs which get piped into hot tubs you can rent.

In Felicia's story you will learn about the Iroquois tribe and their legend of the seven sisters, or better known as the star constellation Pleiades. We also take a look at a few other cultures and their legends about the constellation. 

Check out Indigenous Tales Podcast to get stories of indigenous tribes and their legends all year round!
