Y e t i n j u s t a d o z e n y e a r s , o n e m a n , S e q u o y a h , i n v e n t e d an alphabet for the Cherokee people. Born in eastern Tennessee, Sequoyah was a hunter and a silversmith in his y o u t h , a s w e l l a s a n a b l e i n t e r p r e t e r w h o k n e w S p a n i s h , F r e n c h a n d E n g l i s h . Sequoyah wanted his people to have the secret of the “ t a l k i n g l e a v e s ” as he called his books of white people, and so he set out to design a writt e n f o r m o f C h e r o k e e . H i s c h i e f a i m w a s t o r e c o r d h i s p e o p l e ’ s a n c i e n t t r i b a l c u s t o m s . H e began by designing pictographs for every word in the Cherokee vocabulary. Reputedly his wife, angry with him for his neglect of garden and house, burned his notes, and he had to start over. This time, having concluded that picture- w r i t i n g w a s cumbersome, he made symbols for the sounds of Cherokee language. Eventually he refined his system to eighty-five characters, which he borrowed from the Roman, Greek, and Hebrew alphabets. He presented this system to the Cherokee General Council in 1821, and it was wholeheartedly approved. The response was phenomenal. Cherokees who had struggled for months to learn English lettering school picked up the new system in days. Several books were printed in Cherokee, and in 1828, a newspaper, the C h e r o k e e P h o e n i x , w a s f i r s t p u b l i s h e d in the new alphabet. Sequoyah was acclaimed by his people.

T h e y k n o w w i t h o u t a n a l y s i s t h e d i f f e r e n c e b e t w e e n a n u m b e r o f objects and a smaller number. In his book “ The Natural History of Selboure ” (1786), the naturalist Gilbert White tells how he surreptitiously removed one egg a day from a plover’s nest , and how the mother laid another egg each day to make up for the missing one. He noted that other species of birds ignore the absence of a single egg but abandon their nests if more than one egg has been removed. It has also been noted by naturalists that a certain type of wasp always provides five – never four, never six - caterpillars for each of their eggs so that their young have something to eat when the eggs hatch. Research has also shown that both mice and pigeons can be taught to distinguish between o d d and even numbers of food pieces. These and similar accounts have led some people to infer that creatures other than humans can actually count. They also point to dogs that have been taught to respond to numerical questions with the correct number of barks, or to horses that seem to solve arithmetic problems by stomping their hooves the proper number of times. A n i m a l s r e s p o n d t o q u a n t i t i e s o n l y w h e n t h e y a r e c o n n e c t e d t o s u r v i v a l a s a s p e c i e s – as in the case of the eggs – o r survival as individuals - as in the case of food. There is no transfer to other situations or from concrete reality to the abstract notion of numbers. Animals can “count” only when the objects are present and only when the numbers involved are small – n o t m o r e t h a n s e v e n o r e i g h t . I n l a b e x p e r i m e n t s , a n i m a l s t r a i n e d to “count” one kind of object w e r e u n a b l e t o c o u n t a n y o t h e r t y p e .

A n i m a l s a d m i t t e d l y remarkable achievements simply do not amount to evidence of counting, nor do they r e v e a l m o r e t h a n i n n a t e instincts, refined by the genes of successive generations, or the results of clever, careful conditioning by trainers.
