This talk focuses on the people who occupied the local area for at least 3,000 years prior to the arrival of the Spanish in this area in 1715.  The people that the early English settlers called the “Cusabo” were actually between 12-19 loosely affiliated tribes speaking a common language who lived on the shores of the Port Royal Sound and its rivers.
