Saturiwa by D Hackett

A Timucuan Village That Is Older than the Pyramids

Saturiwa was the Chief of the Timucuan Tribe when Pedro Menendez landed in Florida in 1565. The Timucuan successfully lived here for 4000 years prior to the Spanish establishing the City of St Augustine.

When Pedro Menedez de Aviles landed here on September 8, 1565, he did so at a bustling town that was a tool and pottery making center of activity. The Timucuan were governed by a Cacique (Chief) named Saturiwa, and were initially friendly to the Spanish. As the cultures existed side by side, difficulties arose, and European diseases took a horrible toll on the Timucuan. These diseases and politically-motivated warfare over the succeeding decades spelled doom for this culture. The last known Timucuan died in Cuba in the early 1700s.

We celebrate the culture of these proud Native Americans in a reconstructed portion of the town of Seloy. Our Living History Interpreters will help...
