some history on squaw rock
The Chagrin River, designated a Scenic River in July 1979, flows through the eastern edge of South Chagrin
Reservation. The forest in the reservation has many fine examples of hemlock, white oak, red oak, and shagbark
hickory trees, as well as beech and sugar maples. This area is well-known for its brilliant fall colors.
some of the trees have carvings on them too
The outdoor sculpture known as "squaw rock" in South Chagrin Reservation was carved by artist and blacksmith
Henry Church in 1885. During his life the American Indians knew only hardship at the hands of white settlers.
Henry Church was compelled to tell the story of the American Indians. He called this work "The rape of the
Indians by the white man." In this giant chunk of sandstone he carved a quiver of arrows (with the four phases
of the moon), a giant serpent, an eagle, a woman with a shell behind her (reminiscent of Botticelli's Venus),
a dog, skeleton, and a baby in a papoose. On the river side of the rock, you can find images of tall ships, a
frontiersman with an axe, a log cabin, and the first capital building in Washington D.C.
The reservation is located in Bentleyville, Solon and Moreland Hills, and also features an Arboretum, Polo Field
, Look About Lodge, and many interesting trails to explore.
