Opis

Prior to the Spanish invasion of Florida in 1513, it is estimated that there may have been as many as 772,000 Timucua of various tribes and dialects. Their territory stretched from Georgia to Central Florida. Fifty years later, the Timucua numbered about 150,00 due to epidemic diseases brought to Florida by the Spanish and from Spanish hostilities. By 1682, there were less than 1,000 Timucua. At the turn of the century no Timucua remained. This story follows the adventures of Polymra, a Timucuan Indian girl entrusted by her people to guard their sacred water source. She encounters both Juan Ponce de Leon and Hernando de Soto on the beautiful island we now call Anna Maria.
