About this map

The Big Cypress Seminole Indian Reservation occupies the heart of this mid-1970s orthophotomap, revealing a landscape of wetlands and reclaimed swamp at the intersection of Hendry, Broward, and Collier counties. This unique perspective combines traditional topographic contour lines with aerial photography, highlighting the intricate network of water management features such as Levee 28 and the West Feeder Canal. Within the reservation, local history is rooted at the Browns Indian Trading Post (Ruins) and the Ahfachkee Day Sch, surrounded by the natural drainage of Godden Strand. The map records a period of transition where remote outposts like the Big Cypress Ch and New Testament Ch served a community shaped by the environment of the Canoe Lake Strand.
