A Brief History of Safety Harbor, Florida
Author: Warren Firschein
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 1625845863
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
According to legend, Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto arrived on the shores of Safety Harbor in 1539 believing that he had discovered the fabled Fountain of Youth. For centuries, the area's natural mineral springs had hosted the Tocobaga people and would later attract early pioneers to west-central Florida. The natural mineral springs drew visitors to bathe in their restorative waters, and in the twentieth century, they were eventually transformed into the world-famous Safety Harbor Resort and Spa, enjoyed by wealthy socialites and professional athletes for decades. Today, the city is best known for its abundance of festivals and the collection of artists, writers, poets and musicians who call it their home--an oasis of calm within bustling Pinellas County. Join authors Warren Firschein and Laura Kepner as they detail the vibrant history of scenic Safety Harbor.

The Narvaez/Anderson Site (8Pi54)
Author: Terrance L. Simpson
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Archaeological surveying
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
"This report describes an archaeological investigation of the Narvaez/Anderson site (Florida Site File Number 8Pi54), a shell mound and midden located in Township 31 South, Range 15 East, Section 13, USGS Seminole Quadrangle, Pinellas County, Florida ... The original focus of the investigation of the Narvaez/Anderson site (8Pi54) was to produce a request for placing the site on the Nation Register of Historic Places, however, as the quantity and quality of recovered material increased it became apparent that more was needed, i.e., the analysis and publishing of a very large volume of data on a pristine contact and pre-contact shell midden and mound site-one of the few left in Florida"--p. 1.

Unearthing the Missions of Spanish Florida
Author: Tanya M. Peres
Publisher: University Press of Florida
ISBN: 1683402871
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
This volume presents new data and interpretations from research at Florida’s Spanish missions, outposts established in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries to strengthen the colonizing empire and convert Indigenous groups to Christianity. In these chapters, archaeologists, historians, and ethnomusicologists draw on the past thirty years of work at sites from St. Augustine to the panhandle. Contributors explore the lived experiences of the Indigenous people, Franciscan friars, and Spanish laypeople who lived in La Florida’s mission communities. In the process, they address missionization, ethnogenesis, settlement, foodways, conflict, and warfare. One study reconstructs the sonic history of Mission San Luis with soundscape compositions. The volume also sheds light on the destruction of the Apalachee-Spanish missions by the English. The recent investigations highlighted here significantly change earlier understandings by emphasizing the kind and degree of social, economic, and ideological relationships that existed between Apalachee and Timucuan communities and the Spanish. Unearthing the Missions of Spanish Florida updates and rewrites the history of the Spanish mission effort in the region. Contributors: Rachel M. Bani | Mark J Sciuhetti Jr | Rochelle A. Marrinan | Nicholas Yarbrough | Jerald T. Milanich | Jerry W Lee | Rebecca Douberly-Gorman | Alissa Slade Lotane | John E. Worth | Jonathan Sheppard | Laura Zabanal | Keith Ashley | Tanya M.
