The Seminole Tribe of Florida

ByJoel Comm

A very long time ago, people from the European continent began coming to this country. They came for a variety of reason, freedom for what they believed in, a chance to get rich, and some had a curious desire to just see what’s there.

Today’s site isn’t about those bands of traveler. No, it is about some of the people who met the boat. The Native Americans we will be looking at are the Seminole Tribe, and live in Florida. They have lived there for approx. 12,000 years. After the United States government won the war against the Seminole Indians, and took over their lands, they lived for many years in the swamps of south Florida. But that has all changed, as this site shows. They are now a prosperous nation of people who, from the looks of this site, place a strong emphasis on the American work ethic of you can get what you want if you work at it long enough. Here one can visit and become acquainted with the history, culture, and government. Did you know that they have sold “Sweetgrass” baskets for over 60 years? There are two Seminole languages spoken today, yet neither one is traditionally written.

So if you have a desire to go to Florida, be sure to check out what the Seminole Indians are really like. This web page is an excellent place to start. Have a nice trip.
