Details
Amouskositte (fl. 1741–1753), recorded in colonial documents under spellings such as Ammonscossitte and referred to by the British as the "Young Emperor", was an 18th-century Overhill Cherokee figure from the town of Great Tellico, in present-day Tennessee. The son of Moytoy of Tellico, he was recognized by officials of the Province of South Carolina as "Emperor of the Cherokee" after his father's death in 1741. Because he was young and Cherokee political authority was decentralized among autonomous towns, the title carried little practical weight, and by 1753 leadership among the Overhill Cherokee had passed to Kanagatucko (Old Hop) of Chota.
