The Curious Archaeology of Spanish Explorers in Florida

Time: 2:00 pm til 3:00 pm

Location: Collier County Museum, Naples

Description: We’ve all heard the tales: Leon’s ingenious discovery, Navaez’s tragic expedition, De Soto’s monumental trek towards across the southeast. We have old Spanish documents recounting their feats- but can their stories hold up to the archaeological facts? Come and learn about what previous field work has told us about the first Spanish visitors to Florida and how current, cutting edge archaeology is changing the story.

FPAN is participating in this event.
