Historical Museum of Southern Florida Miami: One Hundred Years of History Paul S. George, Ph.D. F ew cities of such youth can claim a history as eventful, significant, and tumultuous as that of Miami. From its beginnings as a tiny settlement along the Miami River to the robust international city of today, Miami has represented for multitudes of new residents a place to begin anew, a gateway to a better tomorrow. And at no time has this been more true than the present. The Beginning The story of Miami begins more than 10,000 years ago with a settlement of Paleo-Indians along the edge of south Biscayne Bay near today’s Charles Deering Estate. Many millennia later, Tequesta Indians entered the lush, subtropical area and built settlements stretching from the Florida Keys to Broward County, with the largest concentrations along the north bank of the Miami River and on Key Biscayne. Like Florida’s other native inhabitants, who numbered more than 350,000 at the time of the Spanish entrada in 1513, the lifestyle of the Tequestas changed radically, and for the worse, following the Spanish arrival. Victims of disease, war and other dislocations, the Tequestas, along with Florida’s other native populations, had virtually vanished 250 years after the entry of the Spanish. Beginning in 1565, Spain exercised control over Florida for nearly 250 years. Spain’s colonization effort is divided into two eras separated by a twenty-year British interregnum in the late eighteenth century.

Romans/Carthaginians Battle Where/When Opponents Marathon Greece / 490 b.c. Persia / Greece The battle of Marathon is famous, not only because the underdog won, but also because of a legend of courage and sacrifice. Darius, the leader of Persia, Egypt, Babylon, and India, decided to become the ruler of Greece as well. But the Greeks, armed only with javelins and swords, defeated the much larger and better armed Persian army. What we remember today is the story of the messenger who brought the good news to Athens, the capital of Greece. Upon completing his 26-mile run, legend says he delivered his message, collapsed, and died. Today, the word marathon means a footrace of exactly 26 miles, 385 yards. The Trojan horse won the war for Greece against Troy in classical mythology. The horse was a wooden decoy filled with soldiers, who used it to enter the city of Troy. Bettmann Archive Battle Where/When Opponents Hastings England / 1066 British / Normans (French from Normandy) This battle resulted in the Norman conquest of England. Edward the Confessor, the king of England, had no sons and promised that when he died his throne would go to his cousin William, duke of Normandy. On his deathbed, however, the king chose Harold, the powerful earl of Wessex, as king. An enraged William rushed into battle to claim the English throne. At the battle's height, the Normans pretended to flee. When the English ran after them, the Normans turned and attacked them again. Harold was shot in the face with an arrow and died on the battlefield, leaving the throne to William. To this day, the English royal family can be traced back to William the Conqueror.

In AD 16 the Romans created the new province of Aquitania spanning almost the entire south west of France from the Loire river to the Pyrénées. They were responsible for introducing walnuts, chestnuts and wine grapes into the region. In the Middle Ages the most notable development was the appearance of bastides , fortified towns built by rich feudal lords anxious to protect their fiefdoms. The increasingly powerful Church also began to express its power in mortar and stone; fabulous churches and abbeys in Romanesque style appeared all over the region often funded by the Cistercian order or by local lords - especially the powerful lords of Toulouse and Dukes of Aquitaine. The granddaughter of Guillaume IX, Duke of Aquitaine, was the sole heir to the vast lands and wealth of Aquitaine. she was Eleanor of Aquitaine. She was married for 15 years to Louis VII, King of France. This marriage ended in annulment in 1152. Eleanor then married Henry Plantagenet, Count of Anjou. Eleanor's dowry of Aquitaine and Gascony (a third of France), fell under English rule when Henry became Henry II, King of England.

English out of France, end of Hundred Years' War The Medieval city of Carcassone Charles Martel, the first leader of the Carolingian dynasty, initiated the expansion of the Franks' kingdom and stopped the Muslim advance from Spain in 732. Charlemagne (742-814) continued this expansion and conquered most of Germany and Italy to reunite most of the former Roman Empire. Shortly after his death, however, his kingdom was divided under the pressure of invaders such as the Normans (Vikings) and the Magyars (Hungarians). Hugues Capet Towards the end of the first millenium, France consisted of numerous feudal Lordships. The Carolingian dynasty died out in 987 when Hugues Capet was elected to the throne of France by the Lords, starting the Capetian Dynasty. The early Capetian kings had very limited power over the independent Lords. In 1066, William, Duke of Normandy invaded England while the first Crusades started in 1095. Eleanor of Aquitaine Despite the mariage of Eleanor of Aquitaine to Henry II of England which yielded most of the western part of France to the British Crown, the Capetians continued to centralize the Lordships under their control. Philippe IV (the Fair), even pressured sucessors of Pope Boniface VIII to move the papal court to Avignon in 1309. After the death of the last Capetian king Charles IV, Edward III of England claimed the French Throne and started the Hundred Years War in 1337. Thanks to the courage of a French peasant girl, Joan of Arc, Charles VIII emerged victorious in the war and drove the English back to Calais.

JEAN FROISSART Chronicles of the Hundred Years War, (1337-1453) The "Hundred Years' War" between France and England (1337-1453) was an episodic struggle lasting well over a hundred years, with much of the time free of any conflict at all. The battles were violent, but also occasions for the display of chivalric ideals. Crecy and Poitiers were the battlefields upon which the legends of the Black Prince were made. The Battle of Crecy (1346) The Englishmen, who were in three battles lying on the ground to rest them, as soon as they saw the Frenchmen approach, they rose upon their feet fair and easily without any haste and arranged their battles. The first, which was the prince's battle, the archers there stood in manner of a herse and the men of arms in the bottom of the battle. The earl of Northampton and the earl of Arundel with the second battle were on a wing in good order, ready to comfort the prince's battle, if need were.

Hundred Years' War The Hundred Years' War was an intermittent struggle between England and France in the 14th-15th century over a series of disputes, including the question of the legitimate succession to the French crown. The struggle involved several generations of English and French claimants to the crown and actually occupied a period of more than 100 years. By convention it is said to have started in 1337 and ended in 1453, but there had been periodic fighting over the question of English fiefs in France going back to the 12th century. Medieval legalities were such that one king could be the vassal of another king if the first had inherited titles outside his own kingdom. Such was the case with the English kings since William I, who, as the duke of Normandy, had conquered England in 1066. Marriage alliances and wars had altered the nature of the English titles in France, but, at the death of the French king Charles IV in 1328, Edward III of England was also duke of Guyenne (part of Aquitaine in southwestern France) and count of Ponthieu (on the English Channel). Furthermore, because his mother was Charles IV's sister and because Charles IV had no sons, Edward III considered himself a legitimate claimant to the French throne. The other major claimant was the Count of Valois, a grandson of Philip III of France through a younger branch of the family. A French assembly called to settle the question chose the Valois claimant as Philip VI. Edward III appeared to accept the decision, but when Philip VI, afraid of another king's power in his realm, maneuvered to confiscate Guyenne in 1337, Edward III renewed his claim to the French throne and brought an army to Flanders.

The Hundred Years War Started Today: An exploration of electronic peer review by John Peters Introduction The Internet has been described variously as "the grandest revolution in the capture and dissemination of emerging academic and professional knowledge and information since Caxton developed his printing press," "the most significant advance since the penny stamp," and (paraphrased) "the end of the need to print to paper....the harbinger of an economic, social, and cultural revolution as significant as industrialization and urbanization in the 18th and 19th Centuries....people will not just work differently; they will think differently." One of the problems with being at the start of a revolution is that one can hardly reflect on it adequately. It is a little like the schoolboy joke of the letter saying "Dear Mum, All is well over here in the Holy Roman Empire, except that the Hundred Years War started today". The joke being, of course, that you can look back on the Hundred Years War and see what its shapes and patterns were, how long it lasted, and who won; indeed, you can give it a name. But looking forward, you can't make a lot of sense of it. There is a sense of history in these early explorations of what modem-linked computers can do and a sense of typical early phase revolution behavior taking place too; the zealots, the reactionaries, the contras, the indifferent, the opportunists. Those involved so far in trying to make sense of the capabilities of the Internet, and in playing a part in the crafting of its future shape, are what Everett Rogers would describe as "innovators," or at least "early adopters;"
