The Trail of the Lost Tribes is a partnership between public and private organizations and individuals to provide consistent interpretation of the archeology, anthropology, and natural history of the ancient cultural sites on Florida’s Gulf Coast.

Five centuries ago, Florida was home to approximately 100,000 native people living in hundreds of communities, and representing many different cultures. For more than 12,000 years the original Floridians left traces of their lives and work on the landscape. Their ceremonial mounds, village middens, hunting camps, and other archaeological remains are fragile messengers from this profoundly different time. Our archaeological heritage is a legacy that we are privileged to experience and obligated to protect. It is a link to people and cultures that are mostly extinct, as well as to the vibrant native cultures of the present. Thanks to the Trail of the Lost Tribes you can experience the places and the lives of Florida’s native people.
