Hernando de Soto
A Spanish born explorer and first
European to set foot in Georgia
landed in present-day Tampa Bay,
Florida, in 1539. De Soto led 600
conquistadors through the southeast
region of North America in search of
gold. He came to the Georgia area
in 1540.
His expedition failed as he did not
find the gold he was looking for and
died of illness near the Mississippi
River. He often tortured, enslaved,
and killed Native Americans along
his path. The diseases left behind by
Europeans crippled the rich cultures
of the Mississippian culture.
According to the De Soto map on the left, is it
possible that Hernando and his conquistadors
traveled through Paulding County?
