Micanopy

By


Micanopy, known as Micco-Nuppe, Michenopah, Miccanopa, Moc-an-opa and Sint-Chakkee, which means 'pond frequenter', as he must have spent a lot of time at the pond, probably meditating, particularly on the insurgence of the colonists, who wanted to suppress the aboriginal and indigenous people because CLEARLY, they (colonist) were disrespectful of nature, of life, of humanity. What can you expect from uncivilized barbaric slaves, murderers and thieves.  This is the second of wars for the natural people of the land against them.  Micanopy was a war leader in the Second Seminole Wars - Check out his hair, as they are locks.  Hair like lambs wool, skin like brass - copper.
