Download pdf | Full Screen View

Date Issued:
1973
Summary:
This study was undertaken to determine the effects historical perception of resources and resistances (hazards) have on the development of a site. Perception was determined from the reactions each group of settlers had to this environment. It was determined that perception played a major role in the development of the particular site under consideration in this study. Anastasia Island, Florida (the study area) is located across the Intracoastal Waterway from St. Augustine, Florida. A complete history of Anastasia Island is included in the study from pre-Spanish times to the present. Several maps are also included which trace the development of Anastasia Island over the past 400 years.
