  • DUES for 2017 WERE DUE in JANUARY (Please Use the Form at the End of the Newsletter)
    Southwest Florida Archaeological Society (SWFAS) February 2017 Newsletter PRESIDENT’S CORNER by John Furey KORESHAN STATE HISTORIC SITE All of us are aware of the tragic end of the Branch Davidian cult in Waco, Texas and its leader David Koresh. Well Estero, Florida had a religious cult and a Koresh in 1894 long before Waco, Texas. Most of us have heard of Koreshan State Historic Site, driven past the signs to it location in Estero, Florida; but how many of us have visited the site and know the background and story behind its founding and significance. Again, Koreshan State Historic Site, like many of the archaeological sites I have recently spotlighted in the SWFAS Newsletters, is a local attraction that has a unique historical narrative. Koreshan is the story of Cyrus Teed, a physician and the founder of a religious cult, who in 1869, after a serious electric shock claimed divine inspiration and became a religious leader and messiah. Originally founded in New York, he eventually moved his commune to Estero, FL and founded the Koreshan Unity as his “New Jerusalem”. I have included a number of articles about Teed and his movement in this Newsletter to acquaint you with this local landmark and its history. I Hope you find it interesting. I wonder what was happening in New York in the 1800’s to create so many cult-like religious movements. It must have been fertile ground in those isolated Central and Western New York rural farming communities prior to the Civil War. Cyrus Teed formed the Koreshans. Mother Ann founded the Shakers (Shaking Quakers) that began their movement in England but moved to New Lebanon, New York in 1861.

I have searched the libraries through, and no one has done it before. If you read it, you will see that it needed to be done. It has meant twenty-five years of thought and a year of investigation. It contains the facts. I publish the book myself, so that it may be available at the lowest possible price. I am giving my time and energy, in return for one thing which you may give me--the joy of speaking a true word and getting it heard. The present volume is the first of a series, which will do for Education, Journalism and Literature what has here been done for the Church: the four volumes making a work of revolutionary criticism, an Economic Interpretation of Culture under the general title of "The Dead Hand."

  • Koreshanity Is Antichrist"
    The Cellular Cosmogony Index http://www.sacred-texts.com/earth/cc/ Sacred Texts Earth Mysteries The Cellular Cosmogony by Koresh [pseud. Cyrus Reed Teed] [1922] Contents Start Reading We start our series of etexts of alternative theories of the shape of the earth with this masterpiece of pseudoscience by Cyrus Teed. Why Teed was so adamant about our entire universe being inside an 'inside-out' sphere is unknown. Martin Gardner, in Fads and Fallacies , has suggested that it was based on a desire to return to the womb, and that this psychological aspect was key in recruiting new members to Teed's belief system. Teed, born in 1839 in upstate New York, served with the Union Army, and later became a herbalist and studied alchemy. In 1869 Teed had a vision in his laboratory, in which a beautiful woman spoke to him and revealed that he was to become a messiah, and reveal the true cosmogony to the world. Teed took the name Koresh (not to be confused with David Koresh of Waco). He preached that belief in the concavity of the Earth is equivalent to godliness. He proclaimed, "All that is opposed to Koreshanity is antichrist". After touring widely preaching Koreshanity, he settled in Chicago, and started a communal society, as well as a periodical, The Flaming Sword . Koreshanity, at its height, had a few thousand followers. In the 1890s Teed founded the town of Estero, Florida, near Ft. Meyers, and declared it the coming capital of the world. His followers prepared for eight million believers to show up.

  • By Patricia A. Martinelli, M.A
    by Patricia A. Martinelli, M.A. any people are familiar with the premise of Journey to the M Center of the Earth, a spectacular adventure story by 19th century author Jules Verne that took its characters deep into a subterranean world where other civilizations were said to exist. However, what most people don’t know is that the idea of a “hollow earth” was once not considered mere fiction. A number of prestigious scientists and philosophers of the time even felt there was sufficient evidence to believe that it was fact. In America, one of the first and most vocal supporters of the hollow earth theory was John Cleves Symmes, who was born on November 5, 1780, in Sussex County, New Jersey, according to a transcript of his biography, made available through the Hamilton Lane Library in Hamilton, Ohio. The nephew and namesake of a well-respected New Jersey Superior Court Judge, Symmes entered the American Army as an ensign in 1802. He John Cleves Symmes was gradually promoted over the years and served as a captain during the War of 1812. In poor health at the end of the war, he retired from the military and moved to St. Louis, Missouri, where he eventually married Mary Anne Lockwood, the widow of a fellow officer. Although he first tried to make a living as a trader, Symmes was not a successful businessman. In 1819, he moved his family from St. Louis to Newport, Kentucky. Five years later, Symmes relocated to a farm near Hamilton, Ohio, which was given to him by his uncle, also named John Cleves Symmes, an early investor in land in the Midwest.

Lyn Rainard Conditions in Lee County returned to normal after the start of the new year, 1909. The excitement of the previous two weeks had subsided as the members of the Koreshan Unity, a small religious community in the southern-most region of the county, came to recognize that their spiritual leader would not rise from the dead. Both local and state newspapers had scoffed at the expectations of the group. All doubters knew that Cyrus Reed Teed would not be resurrected Christmas Day, three days after his death. But the faith that had first bound the Koreshans to Teed in Chicago and led them to the remote southwest coast of Florida had also convinced them of the inevitability of his resurrection.
