The Chief Tuscaloosa himself, was said to have stood 7 feet tall.

[edit] Serious Issues

There are some serious issues with this article. For example, the spelling of the city of Tuscaloosa is used in some places as his name, in others the alternative spelling is used. The article needs to be renamed and we need better consistency throughout. Obviously there is a need for attribution. I'll be back to it soon. JodyB 20:46, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

  • I changed the names to Tuskaloosa. JodyB 16:34, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
    • Here's one link on the name [[1]] and another [[2]]. Would anyone abject to a redirect? --JodyB talk 18:03, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
      • Page moved and redirect added. JodyB talk 16:59, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Why are we calling Taskalusa a Choctaw? This is a serious mistake. The tribe of Taskalusa may have become part ofthe Choctaw nation years later but that is speculation and canot be applied to a leader of this period.

Well, bring your sources and come to the table. We'd be glad to have you. JodyB talk 18:52, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
