The Tallapoosa River, especially its lower course, was a major population center of the Creek Indians before the early 19th century. The contemporary name of the river is from the Creek words "Talwa posa", which mean Grandmother Town. The Creek Indians consider the Tallapoosa branch of their tribe to be one of the oldest. Horseshoe Bend National Military Park, a U.S. National Military Park managed by the National Park Service, sits on the banks of the Tallapoosa River just upstream from Lake Martin.
