On the Cover
This is a life-size model recreation of King Carlos, leader of the Calusa
Indians, as he takes a meeting at the Calusa Capital on Mound
Key in Estero Bay near modern Fort Myers, Florida. This life size diorama
is part of the permanent exhibit on Native Americans at the
Florida Museum of Natural History in Gainesville. The meeting took place
in 1564 and was witnessed by the Spanish. It also included
his wives, a visiting leader from the Tequesta tribe and the tribes spiritual
leader, his father. Mound Key was a man made island and the
structure built by the Calusa there was large enough to hold 2,000 people
at one time. The cover image shows Carlos (actually Caalus in
the Native language) dressed in all of his formal regalia, including
a large shell gorget, beads, an impressive headdress, arm bands along
with face and body paint. His body has multiple tattoos. For more on
sites in Central Florida, see the story on page 116.
