Kolomi Tribe

The Kolomi tribe is first documented in a 1686 letter by Spanish lieutenant Antonio Mateos, likely situated along the Ocmulgee River. Over time, they relocated to the Chattahoochee River, settling in modern Stewart County, Georgia, and later moving to the Tallapoosa River. The town was described in the 18th century as compact with neat buildings. By 1797, the trade presence in Kolomi diminished, and the town eventually vanished from census records in 1832, with many members migrating to Florida following the Creek War.
