Nuyaka

Nuyaka is a city in the Creek territory of Sequoyah. The city was named for New York City. Shortly after the American Revolution, then-President George Washington invited Creek leaders to meet with him in New York City. Those leaders were impressed with the city, and so named one of their communities after it. That name followed the Creek when they were forced to move into what became Sequoyah.

Nuyaka fell to the United States early in the Great War. The Creek Nation Army was get it back for a brief period in 1915.
