There are only two bird species in the sub-order Acanthisitti. They are known as New Zealand wrens. The sub-order Tyranni are also known as the suboscines. Many of these birds are found in tropical areas.
The Cherokees originally lived in the American southeast region, particularly Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee.
There are two prevailing views about Cherokee origins. One is that the Cherokees are relative latecomers to Southern Appalachia. The other theory is that they have been there for thousands of years. Some historians believe that Cherokees came to Appalachia as late as the 13th century.
