Abstract:
Piedmont, North Carolina is rich in historic landmarks. Among these are Trading Ford, Boone's Cave, the Old Stone Wall, and Sapona. Trading Ford was located where the old trading path crossed the Yadkin River; there the Sapona Indians had an important trading post where traders stopped to trade and recruit. Sapona is located on the Davidson County side of the Yadkin River and was the headquarters and principle town of the Sapona Tribe. Tradition tells us that Boone's Cave is where Daniel Boone hid upon being pursued by Indians.
