About this map

The Shark River Slough dominates this 1973 orthophotomap, showing a complex network of hammocks and camps in the heart of the Everglades. The map provides a unique record of Indigenous habitation and agriculture within the Miccosukee Indian Reservation, documenting specific family sites like Pete Osceolas Farm, Tommy Tigers Camp, and Smallpox Tommies Seminole Village. These settlements are scattered among the saw grass, often anchored by high ground such as Big Hammock or Jack Clay Hammock.
