Lake Seminole Area History
The area now called Lake Seminole has been occupied and used by man for at least 10,000 years. Ancient Native Americans once exploited the region’s abundant natural resources. Later native peoples developed highly complex societies based on corn agriculture. They survived well into the period of the European colonization until their eventual decline and removal from the area. Lake Seminole was named for the last surviving Native Americans who were pushed into Central Florida by American militia under Andrew Jackson after 1825. Interpretive media at the Lake Seminole Visitor Center located at the Resource Management Office provide more information on the physical, biological and cultural characteristics of the project area. |
