Native men using hollow rods which they drive into the sandy bottom of streams to collect gold and other metals from "Brevis narratio eorum quae in Florida Americai provincia Gallis acciderunt", published in 1591 with engravings by Theodore de Bry (1528-98). Jacques le Moyne de Morgues (1533-1588) was a French artist and member of Jean Ribault's expedition to the New World. His depictions of Native American, colonial life and plants are of extraordinary historical importance. Le Moyne accompanied the French expedition of Jean Ribault and Ren矇 Laudonni癡re in an ill-fated attempt to colonize northern Florida. They arrived at the St. Johns River in 1564, and soon founded Fort Caroline near present-day Jacksonville. His drawings of the cultures commonly referred to as the Timucua (known through their reproduction by the Dutch publisher Theodor de Bry) are largely regarded as some of the most accessible data about the cultures of the Southeastern Coastal United States; however, many of these depictions and maps are currently being questioned by historians and archaeologists as to their authenticity.
