“Rich from the Sea: Florida Native Americans’ Indigenous Wrecking in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries”
Dr. Peter J. Ferdinando, Assistant Teaching Professor, Department of History, University of North Carolina at Charlotte
The Native Americans of Florida’s east coast exploited the resources of the Atlantic Ocean for centuries before European contact. Following the arrival of Europeans, they employed those same maritime skills to acquire shipwrecked goods, castaway peoples, and even parts of the shattered ships that washed ashore. They then modified and used such materials, and also traded them with other indigenous peoples, the Spaniards of St. Augustine, and passing European ships. Through Indigenous wrecking, these coastal peoples both resisted and participated in an emerging Atlantic World.
