Native American Tribe Series.


Mocogo Indians

They belonged with little doubt to the Timucuan division of the Muskhogean linguistic stock and lived about the head of Hillsboro Bay. The chief of this tribe gave asylum to a Spaniard named Juan Ortiz who had come to Florida in connection with the expedition of Narvaez. When De Soto landed near the Mocogo town its chief sent Ortiz with an escort of warriors to meet him. Ortiz afterward became De Soto’s principal interpreter until his death west of the Mississippi, and the Mocogo chief remained on good terms with the Spaniards as long as they stayed in the neighborhood. There are only one or two later references to the tribe.

Some people call Wednesday hump day, I call it cache day! Being the time of year it is, at lunch I thought about it and decided I did not have the feeling I would see a danger noodle (snake) today, so I hit the plains and had mixed luck. The grass has grown up in some areas to the point where I didn't dare go in, and in other places I went in but had no luck finding the cache. Probably easier with no or dead grass... Anyhoo, I did find most of what I looked for and even had a little fun on a non-maintained road. A big thank you to the COs for placing these and putting smileys on my face today! Find #3737
