Wikipedia page about Cherokee leader Attakullakulla

Attakullakulla, often called "Little Carpenter" by the English (circa 1708–1778) was an influential Cherokee leader and the tribe's First Beloved Man (tribal chief), serving from 1761 to around 1775. His son was Dragging Canoe, a leader of the Chickamauga Cherokee.

His name "Little Carpenter" derived from the English meaning of his Cherokee name along with a reference to his physical stature.
