Spirit of a Nation

Estimated time: 1.5-2 hours

You are Nicki Seward, a 15-year-old descendant of the native Apalachee. As a present-day intern at Mission San Luis in Florida, you are exploring artifacts and using historical imagination to step into the roles of young Apalachee people in the 16th and 17th centuries. Your goal: to understand how they responded to the arrival of the Spanish and use the evidence you collect to create an exhibit for the museum.
