Gadugi



Ga-du-gi is a term used in the Cherokee language which means "working together" in a community sense. Historically, the word meant working together towards a common goal which would benefit all of the Cherokee People such as working together to build a community council house, or working together to bring in the harvest of corn during the Green Corn Ceremony (ah-ga-we-la se-lu u-tsi) which translates as "old woman corn mother", the highest traditional ceremony of the Cherokee People which was held annually during the first moon following the corn harvest.
