Abstract
It has been well established that the Apalachee lived in an environment conducive to farming, hunting, fishing, and foraging. The woodlands, freshwater lakes, streams and rivers, and arable soils of the Tallahassee Red Hills region enabled the Apalachee to attain a high standard of food security in the pre-Mission period. This level of success took the form of extensive agricultural fields and stores of dried deer meat, as was noted in the de Soto chronicles. While the historic documents include some information about maize or black drink preparation, overall, little textual attention is given to foodways. Fortunately, zooarchaeology and paleoethnobotany allows us to piece together this information from multiple lines of evidence. In this chapter, Tanya Peres reviews the subsistence evidence we have to date for Apalachee Province during the Mission Period, including animal and plant data. These data are combined with other currently available forms of foodways data such as food storage and preparation indicators, types of cooking and serving vessels and tools, contextual information, and historic documentation to paint a picture of what we know about the foodways practiced by the Spanish friars living among the Apalachee and the families that fed them during the Mission Period.
