Calling the Indians who attacked Indian Key "Spanish-speaking" is not supported from the historical record, and implies that they were connected with Spain and Cuba, and not part of the "Seminoles". The attack was believed to be carried by Chakaika's band, which was called "Spanish Indians" in a mistaken belief that they were remnants of the Calusa who had stayed behind in Florida when the Spanish left (the first time) in 1767. Modern historians see Chakaika's band as a group of "Seminoles" who moved into south Florida while most of the "Seminoles" still remained in north Florida. John Mahon, in his History of the Second Seminole War 1835-1842 (Revised edition 1967), the most complete modern history of that war, uses the phrase, "the so-called Spanish Indians", in describing the attack on Indian Key.(P. 280) -- Donald Albury14:42, 5 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
Ok, but your previous revert didn't fix that, it merely scrambled the contents of the paragraph [1], leaving the date as a hanging fragment and removing the {{fact}} tag that I added. bd2412T15:19, 5 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
My apologies, you did not scramble the paragraph - the anon who edited before my three edits did that, and neither of us caught that. bd2412T22:06, 5 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
