Rather than a single moment, this drawing follows how one route changed over time, as its title suggests. The Natchez Trace began as a footpath worn by generations of Native travelers, including the Chickasaw and Choctaw, linking the Mississippi River country near Natchez with the Tennessee hills around Nashville. Later it carried traders walking home after floating their goods downriver, and it became a federal postal road before the National Park Service began managing it as a scenic parkway. Each stage left its mark on the land along the way.
