Knights of the Order of the Crescent

Knights of the Order of the Crescent

Knights of the Order of the Crescent is a worthy discussion since we know that the crescent moon is an indigenous symbol from Southern Arabia, aka, Mexico, since Mexico was Southern Arabia and Mexico means, “In the center of the Moon”: https://rb.gy/himgj1. A French Canadian Maur by the name of Ann Marie Bourassa sent me a link to the Armorial Chevaliers (Knights) of the Order of the Crescent…

Native Americans in Georgia culture?

Apalachee IndiansAfter the English and Creeks destroyed the Apalachee towns in Florida in 1704, they established a part of the tribe in a village not far below the present Augusta. In 1715, when the Yamasee war broke out, these Apalachee joined the hostile Indians and went to the Chattahoochee to live near that faction of the Lower Creeks which was favorable to Spain. Soon afterward, however, the English faction gained the ascendency among the Creeks, and the Apalachee returned to Florida.

Apalachicola Indians

Chatot IndiansSome of these Indians lived at times in the southwest corner of this State.

Cherokee IndiansFrom early times the Cherokee occupied the northern and northeastern parts of Georgia, though from certain place names it seems probable that they had been preceded in that territory by Creeks.

Chiaha Indians

Chickasaw IndiansA band of Chickasaw lived near Augusta from about 1723 to the opening of the American Revolution, and later they were for some time among the Lower Creeks.

Creek IndiansA part, and perhaps a large part, of the Indians who afterward constituted the Creek Confederacy were living in the sixteenth century in what the Spaniards called the province of Guale on the’ present Georgia coast. Some of them moved inland in consequence of difficulties with the Whites, and in the latter half of the seventeenth century most of those afterward known as Lower Creeks were upon Chattahoochee and Ocmulgee Rivers, the latter river being then called Ocheese Creek, from the Hitchiti name given to the Indians living on it. After the Yamasee War (1715) all assembled upon Chattahoochee River and continued there, part on the Georgia side of the river, part on the Alabama side, until they removed to the present Oklahoma early in the nineteenth century. (See Creek Confederacy and Muskogee)

Guale Indians

Hitchiti Indians

Kasihta IndiansOne of the most important divisions of the Muskogee, possibly identical with the Cofitachequi of the De Soto narratives.

Muskogee Indians

Oconee Indians

Okmulgee Indians

Osochi IndiansA division of the Lower Creeks which lived for a time in southwestern Georgia.

Sawokli IndiansA division of the Creeks belonging to the group of towns that spoke the Hitchiti language.

Shawnee IndiansThe Shawnee band which settled near Augusta concerns South Carolina and Georgia almost equally. Their history has already been given in treating the tribes of the former State. (See also Tennessee.)

Tamathli Indians

Timucua IndiansOne contact between the Timucua Indians and Georgia is mentioned later in connection with the Osochi. When the Spaniards first came in contact with them, the Timucua occupied not merely northern and central Florida but Cumberland Island and a part of the adjacent mainland. The Timucua evidently withdrew from this territory as a result of pressure exerted by northern Indians in the latter part of the seventeenth century or the very beginning of the eighteenth. (See Utina)

Yamasee Indians

Week two, Research

The Mayaca are proving rather difficult to research.  In the last few weeks I reached out to the Florida Historical Society and the Seminole County Historical Society.  After hearing back from Holly Baker at FHS, she informed me that they did not have any information on them.  However, their archive suggested there were a few pictures which she would get back to me with.  So I am currently waiting for those.  As far as the Seminole County Historical Society, they clearly had been contacted before me. I heard back from Lloyd Bennett that the best information available on them is on display at Hontoon Island State Park, including some artistic contributions.  They will need to be contacted to see if they are willing to send some images or share information about the Mayaca with us.  The state park itself is just outside of Orange City, north of Lake Monroe in the Central Florida area.  A visit might be scheduled, but that would be difficult to try and do, so hopefully they are willing to share information digitally.  

Information about the Mayaca can be found mostly by record of Father Lopez, who served alongside Pedro Menendez in his 1566 expedition southward along the St. Johns River. He later describes the territory the Mayaca live in, and the encounters with them. The spelling changes between Mayaca and Macoya. Herndando d’Escalante Fontaneda’s also mentions the Mayaca and Mayajuaca, which he reaffirms the location Father Lopez described, and expands the connection of the Ais and south of the Utina and the Mayaca.  Fontaneda describes those people as “very skilled at drawing a bow, and very treacherous,” and as “rascals and beggars.” He recommends that rather than attempt to Christianize them, as the attempt would likely be unsuccessful, they rather be enslaved and disbursed throughout Spanish holdings to be “civilized” as “vassals.” It might be worth noting here in an exhibit how the Spaniards often enslaved indigenous populations and give other examples, particularly as they relate to their Caribbean colonies.

The Mayaca are missionized throughout the 17th century with noted mixed success.  Most of this information comes from the immense body of work done by Franciscan friars of the era, and are likely my next avenue of research. Such friars include Francisco de Ayeta who supposedly wrote that they were semi-nomadic, and seems to be often quoted but the original source is strangely missing. By 1708 they disappear, as noted by Governor Francisco Corcoles y Martinez who reports “that all the Christian Indians of Apalachee, Timucua, Guale and Mayaca and Jororo were gone.” Also worth noting here that it is this time frame many of the native Floridians die due to disease introduced by European colonization.  

Bennett does pointe out to me that where the Mayaca fit in relation to other noted indigenous peoples is a matter of speculation, particularly their connection to the Jororo or Hororo people of Florida.  Some classify them as distinct people-groups with a shared language, others consider them to be the same group, though possibly under different leadership. It’s difficult to figure out exactly, especially considering that the Spaniards often used the names of caciques, towns, and tribes interchangeably. The Jororo carried out a rebellion in the late 17th century, the first time they appear in Spanish writing. There is an obvious relation, but one poorly defined in the source material. This could be noted in a possible exhibit, both the connection and the rebellion, depending on space constraints.  

Bennett was also kind enough to suggest a few resources, which I will likely be pouring into in order to flesh out a better idea.  I also need to reach out to Maitland A&H to see what precisely they want in an exhibit. For now, there is a lot to still be found and this is a good start.

Regrann from @mnycldfwx_ - @captainamerica__1 - Yamassee Nation If your roots are from the southeast (predominantly Georgia, Florida and the Carolinas) research the Yamassee Indian nation. We’ve been inhabiting Southeast North America for thousands of years but the majority of our origins are in what is now known as Me(Xi)co or Mesoamerica, South America, and the surrounding Islands of the Caribbean. Gullah/Guale Connection ⬇️ Guale has also been synonymous with Gullah or Gullah Geechee and Yamassee. Even though the Geechee are indigenous to the Americas, they always try to Africanize our history by saying we are descendants of the Transatlantic slave trade lol. We been here. Research the Gullah Wars, we fought for our ancestral land and freedom. I remember as a youngin, one of my favorite TV shows was "Gullah Gullah Island." Also how can a tribe be extinct if you just reclassified us as "Negro, Colored, Black, Afro American, and African-American" which aren't nationalities? They essentially wrote us out of history, that's why people say, "The pen is mightier than the sword." We are only extinct on paper 📝 #Yamassee #GullahGullahIsland #GullahWars #YamasseeWar #Georgia #Guale #Gullah #Creek #SpanishFlorida #Georgia #WestIndian #JackDForbes #PaleoAmerican #AutochthonsofAmerica #PaleoIndian #AfroAsiatic #RolandBDixon #AncientVoices #Australoid #ProtoNegroid #Moundbuilder #aborigine #PaperGenocide #PapalBull #InterCaetera #RomanusPontifex #TerraNullius #DumDiversas1452 #PopeNicholasV #AfricanAmericansAintAfrican #BibliotecaColumbina

Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve

Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve: The Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve comprises 46,000 acres of wetlands, waterways, and other habitats in northeastern Duval County. It is named for the Timucua Indians who had 35 chiefdoms throughout northern Florida and south Georgia at the time of Spanish colonization. Established February 16, 1988 - a patchwork of public land on both sides of the St. Johns River - Timucuan encompasses sites of historic, cultural, and ecological interest scattered between Amelia Island and Mayport. Most of these sites are directly tied to the indigenous people of this region, the Timucua, and their interactions with the Europeans who attempted to settle here. The history and culture of the Preserve stretches over 6,000 years. Here, you can listen to the life stories of the native people who survived in Florida's environment prior to European contact. You can learn of the clash of cultures that occurred as nations converged in the New World, from European attempts at colonization to the struggles of enslaved African peoples. Archeological excavation by a University of North Florida team has revealed more information about indigenous peoples in the area. On Black Hammock Island, they have discovered remnants of the second-oldest pottery in the United States, dating to 2500 BCE. (There have been slightly older finds in the Savannah River area.) They also have excavated more recent artifacts contemporary with the Mocama chiefdom. In the last 25 years, these Native American people have been recognized as distinct from the Timucua, although they spoke a Timucuan dialect. Their chiefdom extended from the St. Johns River to St. Simons Island, Georgia. Archeologists believe they have found evidence of a Spanish mission on the island as well. San Juan del Puerto, one of the oldest Spanish missions in Florida, was established here during the 16th century. Franciscan brothers were missionaries to the Timucua and Guale Indians along the coast, whose territory included the Sea Islands in Georgia and up to the Savannah River. The Fort Caroline National Memorial is located in the Timucuan Preserve. Fort Caroline memorializes the short-lived French presence in sixteenth century Florida. Here you will find stories of exploration, survival, religious disputes, territorial battles, and first contact between American Indians and Europeans. Fort Caroline National Memorial also hosts the Timucuan Preserve Visitor Center. When visiting the park you can discover history, hike on nature trails, watch for dolphins in the St. Johns River, become a Junior Ranger and more. The Kingsley Plantation, the oldest standing plantation in the state. During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, many people came to Florida. Some, like Zephaniah Kingsley, sought to make their fortunes by obtaining land and establishing plantations. Others were forced to come to Florida to work on those plantations, their labor providing wealth to the people who owned them. Some of the enslaved would later become free landowners, struggling to keep their footing in a dangerous time of shifting alliances and politics. All of these people played a part in the history of Kingsley Plantation. https://national-park-posters.com/blogs/national-park-posters/timucuan-ecological-and-historic-preserve?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=Sendible&utm_campaign=RSS

Today I’ve used Boal fish which is a freshwater catfish... did you know it’s scientific name is Wallago Attu? This species is commonly found in Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Vietnam and Indonesia and goes by the name of Boal, Gual, Sareng, Barali, Barwari, Mully, Valai and so on! Can you believe one fish has so many different names! I must admit that we are very fortunate to be able to enjoy our heritage even in the UK, freshwater fish has always been a part of my traditional diet and I hope to pass it on to future generations 🤗 plus it’s so damn tasty! 🤤 . Honestly it’s so easy to make this dish, simple with maximum taste! The fish is so soft and flaky, the spices really compliment the fish without compromising the natural flavours of the Boal!

Who were the Guale Indians? #genealogy #georgiapioneers https://ift.tt/2OrKGuR

[khyrrascrownoflocs]

I can't speak for everyone, but I've gone back through every convo & question I asked my Nana (on my Mama's side) & I promise she never had any slave story! I have so many questions & definitely plan to do further research of records. I'm sure we have some African ancestry but indigenous blood as well. The so-called Native Americans we've been indoctrinated to see when we think 'Indian' has got to be removed from our mental cause when you start to look at old pics of those from tribes such as the Yamassee, Guale, Seminole, Arawak, Taino, etc...you'll see yourself in them. And get this...I've also read that some tribes spoke a dialect of Hebrew 😳🤔 the rabbit hole of 'his'tory goes deep y'all. https://www.instagram.com/p/BpLejNmg8WD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14ixkijwnqpbh

St. Augustine, Florida (No. 4)

Tolomato Cemetery is a Catholic cemetery located on Cordova Street in St. Augustine, Florida. The cemetery was the former site of "Tolomato", a village of Guale Indian converts to Christianity and the Franciscan monks who ministered to them. The site of the village and Franciscan mission is noted on a 1737 map of St. Augustine. A cemetery for the inhabitants of the village was also located on the grounds, with a portion of this cemetery set aside for former American black slaves, who had converted to Catholicism after escaping bondage in the Carolinas.

The location of Tolomato was just outside the city across from the Rosario Line, a defensive line constructed in the First Spanish Period, which consisted of an earthen embankment planted with cactus and Yucca gloriosa, also known as Spanish daggers.

Digital Images of Wills for the Chieftainry in connection with Georgia

Liberty County, placed mutual regard the southeastern portion in respect to the rehearse on the Georgia coast, was all-powerful of the seven Georgia counties created from the nonjuror colonial parishes on February 5, 1777. The Guale Indians inhabited that area against preadamite times, and in the eighteenth century the tribe became a part pertaining to the Muskogee ochreous Fluviation Confederation. The Spanish placed a mission occurring St. Catherines Island in the later sixteenth moment among the Guale Indians. In harmony with Realistic Oglethorpe left St. Simons Island, some of the settlers to Frederica removed into Diploma Sultanate, settling on large tracts of polis grants. In 1752 after the Charter was surrendered, land was opened up to large parties and congregations for cash. A group of Puritans from Dorchester, South Carolina (originally off Dorchester, Massachusetts) took ennoble large debark grants and developed communities such as Third-world and Sunbury, a thriving Colonial port. In 1777, Initiative Riding was officially created.
