About this listen
In 1568, Fort San Juan burned.
Spain’s inland foothold in the Blue Ridge Mountains collapsed in coordinated resistance led by Indigenous mountain societies, including the people Spanish records called the Chisca.
In this episode of Echoes of the Blue Ridge, we examine the destruction of the Spanish forts, the role of Hernando Moyano’s campaigns, and the possibility that the Chisca were not lost, but absorbed into the evolving cultural landscape of the southern Appalachians.
The mountains did not fall quietly.
