INDIAN ROADS of Florida - 1708 map by Herman Moll

 

INDIAN ROADS of Florida were well established when Spanish explorers came to the New World. Soto, particularly, took advantage of them. This 1708 map by Herman Moll depicts two prominent Florida trails. One linked St. Augustine and St. Marks. The other path paralleled St. Johns and Kissimmee rivers south to Lake Okeechobee.
