Allen2 Florida's Environment Series Aucilla rivers all flow underground during part of their journey to the Gulf. Introduction Much of north central Florida (Fig. 1) consists of upland ridges, highlands, and hammocks interspersed with interior flatwoods and coastal lowlands. Conservation lands constitute about 20 percent of the north central region of Florida (Table 1). Many temperate species of the southern hardwood forest ecosystem extend into this region and some of the largest hardwood hammocks in the state occur in this area. High pine communities dominated by longleaf pine and scrub habitats also exist. This area supports a high diversity of wildlife, including large numbers of migratory birds that travel along the Gulf coast. This area is characterized by many rivers, which cross the north central region on their way from large swamps in the northern highlands south to the Gulf of Mexico, emptying into the area known as the Big Figure 1. North central Florida region with counties. Bend (Fig. 2). Many springs fueled by the Floridan Credits: UF/IFAS aquifer occur in the region and because of the porous limestone (karst) geology, many rivers disappear Bordering the northeastern Gulf of Mexico, the below ground only to emerge again some distance Big Bend coastal lowland of marshes, swamps, and away. The Santa Fe, Steinhatchee, St. Marks, and pine flatwoods is currently one of the least developed regions of the state.

Culen 2015 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This project evaluated a 90 acre site on Orange Lake in north central Florida. A cultural resource management survey was conducted to determine what archeological evidence for prehistoric activity was present. This research was conducted in order to identify settlement patterns and determine if they corresponded with settlement strategies already identified for wetland environments in north central Florida. After a tool stone procurement zone was identified, a study examining debitage size grade drop-off trends was conducted in an effort to separate quarrying and non-quarrying activity areas.
