taken from wikipedia: Because Georgians long have assumed that Tallulah was a Cherokee word, there is no agreement regarding the derivation of the name for the Tallulah River. Tourism promoters in the late 1800s described the word Tallulah as meaning "thundering waters" in Cherokee. Some scholars later theorized the that tallulah meant “terrible” in Cherokee or was possibly derived from a number of other words, but it is more likely that there is no translation for the word.[6] It actually has no meaning in Cherokee. The most likely source of the word is the Okonee (a branch of the Creek Indians) word talula, which means "town." The Okonee People occupied northeastern Georgia and northwestern South Carolina for hundreds of years prior to the arrival of the Cherokees in the early 1700s.
In any event, there was a Cherokee Over-the-Hill settlement called Tallulah located on the upper portion of the river.[7]
I don't know how your American history is, but the Cherokees were a great race of indians that ruled this land before us pale-skins came in and ran them out.
Tallulah had been dammed for years and only started having scheduled recreational releases in 1997. I was one of the lucky ones to get a permit. It was real cool because for everyone that put on that day, it was like a first descent. Nobody new the lines. It's a class IV run. The lines are simple if you're with someone who knows them. Oceana is one of the most intimidating rapids I've seen. I've always run it but most walk it. Photos and video can be found on the web. Unfortunately we've been suffering a pretty ugly drought in the southeast, so releases were cancelled. It is a jewel for southeast boaters here in the states and it was terrible news. Hopefully we'll get enough rain over the winter and spring to bring the water levels up for next year.
