Description


Safety Harbor Site

The Safety Harbor Site is an archaeological site in Safety Harbor, Florida, United States, located in Philippe Park at 2355 Bayshore Drive. It is the largest remaining mound in the Tampa Bay area, and is believed to have been the "capital city" of the Tocobaga. It is the type site for the Safety Harbor culture.[4] In 1964 it was declared a National Historic Landmark.[2] After the U.S. National Register of Historic Places program was created in 1966, the site was added to it the same year. It is sometimes referred to as the "Indian Mound."
