Pia. A town on the east coast south of St. Augustine and Nocoroco. 
Pitano. A mission station a league or half a league from San Pablo (Puturiba). 
Piyaya. Given in an early Spanish manuscript as the name of a chief on the west 
coast of Florida between Osigubede and Tanpacaste. 
Pooy, Pojoy. Mentioned in a Spanish document of 1612 as a town or province situ- 
ated on a certain bay. The document says: "The best bay [on the south- 
western coast of Florida] is the bay of Pooy, which is where the Indians say 
Hernando de Soto disembarked." This is Tampa Bay or that part of it known 
as Hillsborough Bay. A letter of 1625 mentions a province called Posoy, which 
is probably identical with this. In 1080 a Calusa province is referred to 
called Rojoi, said to contain a population of non-Christian Indians numbering 
300. Rojoi is probably a misspelling of Pojoi (=Pojoy). 
Potano, Potanou, Patano. One of the most important provinces or tribes in Flor- 
ida and seemingly the most warlike. It was in the Alachua plains and was 
later the seat of the mission of San Francisco de Potano. 
Potaya. A town and mission station 4 leagues from San Juan del Puerto. 
Potoyotoya. A carry back of Cape Canaveral, where the Indians moved their canoes 
across from one lagoon to another. 
Puala. A town in the neighborhood of San Pedro, whose chief came to see Gov. 
Ibarra in 1604. 
Punhuri. A town inland from San Pedro, whose chief came to see Ibarra in 1604. 
Puturiba, Poturiba, Potoriba, Pothohiriva, Potogiribia. A town and mis- 
sionary seat which seems to have been located on San Pedro (Cumberland) 
Island near its northern end. The river which separated the provinces of 
Timucua and Guale, and which was probably the Satilla, bore its name. The 
chief of this town was among the insurgents of 1656. The mission was called 
San Pedro y San Pablo de Puturiba. 
Ratobo. See Natobo. 
Sabobche, Savovochequeya. A town near the east coast south of St. Augustine 
and Nocoroco. 
[St. Julian.] One of the Fresh Water towns, the third from St. Augustine. The 
native name is not preserved, or at least not identified. 
Salinacani. Given by Laudonniere as the name of a Florida river; probably a 
misprint of Halimacani (see Alimacani). 
[San Mateo.] A village about 2 leagues from San Juan del Puerto. 
[San Pablo.] A village about 1| leagues from San Juan del Puerto. To be distin- 
guished from San Pedro y San Pablo de Poturiba (see Puturiba). 
[San Sebastian.] A town on an arm of the sea near St. Augustine, destroyed 
about 1600 by a flood. 
Sarauahi, Saraurahi, Saracary, Serranay, Sarabay, Carabay, Calabay. Ap- 
parently the name of Nassau River and a town a quarter of a league from San 
Juan del Puerto. 
Saturiwa, Saturiua, Saturiona, Saturiba, Satoriva, Sotoriba. One of the 
leading chiefs in Laudonniere's time, and his province. It is scarcely men- 
tioned by the Spaniards. The province lay on both sides of the St. Johns at 
its mouth. Dona Maria, a leading supporter of the Spaniards, whose town was 
close to St. Augustine, probably ruled over the Saturiwa territories in later 
times. 
Seloy. See Soloy. 
Sena. I do not know whether this is a native or a Spanish word. A mission not 
appearing in the regular lists was known as Santa Maria de Sena. Possibly 
this is intended for Sienna. It was on an inlet north of the mouth of the St. 
Johns, perhaps Amelia River. 
Sicale. See Cicale.
