The Overmountain Men were American frontiersmen from west of the Appalachian Mountains who took part in the American Revolutionary War. While they were present at multiple engagements in the war's southern campaign, they are best known for their role in the American victory at the Battle of Kings Mountain in 1780. The term "overmountain" arose because their settlements were west of, or "over", the Appalachians, which was the primary geographical boundary dividing the 13 American colonies from the western frontier. The Overmountain Men hailed from parts of Virginia, North Carolina, and what is now Tennessee and Kentucky.

  • رجال الجبل كانوا ساكني الحدود في غرب جبال الأبالاش الذين شاركوا في حرب الاستقلال الأمريكية. وبالرغم من مشاركتهم في الاشتباكات العديدة التي وقعت في الحملة الجنوبية للحرب، فإنهم مشهورون بدورهم في الانتصار الأمريكي في معركة جبل الملوك في عام 1780. ويشير مصطلح «فوق الجبل» إلى حقيقة أن مساكنهم كانت في جنوب، أو «فوق»، جبال الأبالاش وهي؛ سلسلة الجبال التي تشكل الحدود الجغرافية الأساسية التي تفصل 13 مستوطنة أمريكية عن الحدود الغربية. وينحدر رجال الجبل من أجزاء من فرجينيا وكارولاينا الشمالية وما يُعرف حاليًا باسم ولاية تينيسي.

  • Die Overmountain Men (auf deutsch etwa: „Männer von jenseits der Berge“) waren Angehörige der amerikanischen Milizen während des Amerikanischen Unabhängigkeitskrieges. Sie waren überwiegend Kolonisten aus Gebieten im Westen der Appalachen, die heute zu West Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina und Virginia gehören. Sie spielten eine wichtige Rolle unter anderem in der Schlacht von Kings Mountain und der Schlacht von Cowpens. (de)
