In The Sherlock Society, which tribe's archives indicate that The Lost City was located on its reservation?

• A. The Miccosukee
• B. The Seminole
• C. The Cherokee
• D. The Crow

Answer: (A)

The question hinges on identifying where the story’s archival evidence places The Lost City. In The Sherlock Society, a pivotal clue comes from the Miccosukee tribe’s archives, which explicitly record The Lost City as being located on their reservation. This makes them the best-supported source for the city’s location within the narrative, since the clue ties the Lost City to the Miccosukee lands and their documented records.

Why the other options don’t fit as the definitive source is that their archives aren’t shown to place The Lost City on their reservation borders. The Seminole, Cherokee, and Crow are associated with different regions and lore in the story, and nothing in their documented records pins The Lost City to their lands in the way the Miccosukee archives do. So, the Miccosukee archives provide the clearest, most direct link to the city’s location.
