The Land They Found
Paul E. Hoffman
The ecology of the Floridas is the stage upon which the actors who figure in
the chapters of this History of Florida played out their stories. Ecology did
not determine those stories, it must be stressed, but it did influence them to
varying degrees over time and helped people determine where to build their
homes and economic enterprises. Until well into the twentieth century, the
topography, soils, flora and fauna, and weather of the region profoundly
shaped the livelihoods and thus lives of the Native Americans, Europeans,
and Africans who inhabited what was at first a vast, il -defined region in
proof
southeastern North America (La Florida) but which in time became just
the area of the modern state. The influences of the peninsula’s ecology on
the lives of Florida’s residents have become less pronounced since the mid-
twentieth century because the economy has shifted away from a near total
dependence on agriculture and because modern technologies have allowed
at least a limited reshaping of aspects of that ecology. For example, drainage
patterns and the
