Native Americans played a strategic role in the economy and welfare of the Carolina Colony. Walk the beautiful trails at the 12,000 Year History Park to learn more about their role here and how the historic resources of the park are relevant to the lives and culture of Native peoples today, including the Cherokees and Catawbas. There are at least 12 archaeological-significant sites on the property. The diversity of cultural and historical richness at the 12,000 Year History Park is significant and unique throughout our local and regional areas as well as the State of South Carolina. History Tours commence at the Cayce Tennis Center, located at 1120 Fort Congaree Trail in Cayce, where free parking is provided. Attendees are requested to meet the tour guide(s) at the park’s entrance and to utilize the dirt parking lot situated to the left and just beyond the Tennis Center.
