History of Nashville
1000 to 1400 CE- The first known settlers in the area of modern Nashville were Native Americans of the Mississippian culture. They sowed and harvested corn, made great earthen mounds, and painted richly decorated pottery. They then mysteriously disappeared. Other Native Americans, the Cherokee, Chickasaw and Shawnee, followed and used the area as a hunting ground.
1779-Nashville was founded by James Robertson, John Donelson, and a party of Wataugans in 1779. Nashville was originally called Fort Nashborough, after the American Revolutionary War hero Francis Nash. Nashville quickly grew because of its prime location, accessibility as a river port, and its later status as a major railroad center.1843- Nashville was named the permanent capital of the state of Tennessee.
