  • The Historic Preservation Support Document
    The Historic Preservation Support Document The inventory and analysis in the Support Document provide the foundation for the Plan portion of this Chapter. The Support Document is not adopted. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF SARASOTA PALEOINDIAN CULTURE PERIOD (12,000 to 9,500 years ago) Paleoindians, the earliest known inhabitants of Florida, lived as nomadic hunters from 12,000 to 9,500 years ago. They roamed over a landscape very different from today. With a lower sea level, Florida’s coastline was much farther out, especially along the Gulf Coast. The total landmass of Florida was about twice the size as it is today and present day Sarasota was located inland. The climate was also different – arid and cool. Water was in short supply and the best sources for water were rivers and watering holes, such as the deep springs of Warm Mineral Springs and Little Salt Springs south of Sarasota. The cool and arid climate, as well as expanded landmass, meant a different array of plants and animals. Mammoths, camelids, and giant land tortoises existed during this period and fossils of these animals have been discovered in and around Sarasota. Typical plants of this period included scrub oak, pine forests, grass prairies, and savannahs. Archaeologists have discovered evidence of human campsites at Warm Mineral Springs and Little Salt Springs. Paleoindians camped around what were then sinkholes and artifacts discovered at these springs demonstrate how animals were killed, butchered, and eaten. Underwater archaeological excavations at Warm Mineral Springs and Little Salt Springs have expanded our knowledge of the Paleoindian period in Sarasota and Florida as well as the North American continent.

Funding for this survey and subsequent reporting was provided by the City of Sarasota. The purpose of this survey was to identify and document existing historic resources. Data gathered during the survey will support a better preservation plan and identify geographic areas that have retained integrity and possess significance for a potential National Register district and aid in planning for future development. The objectives of the survey were to conduct a comprehensive survey and record the architectural resources for the Florida Master Site File (FMSF) utilizing the Historic Structure Form and assess their eligibility for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) as well as assess their eligibility for contribution to a local district. All work was intended to comply with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966 (as amended) as implemented by 36 CFR 800 (Protection of Historic Properties), Chapter 267 F.S. and the minimum field methods, data analysis, and reporting standards embodied in the Florida Division of Historic Resources’ (FDHR) Historic Compliance Review Program (November 1990, final draft version).
