Résumé
In 1540, Hernando de Soto and 600 Spanish conquistadors crossed the Savannah River into what is now South Carolina and thus entered the empire of the Chicora, the largest and most powerful Native American Civilization in the Southeast. Modern archaeologists have yet to find any trace of that once vibrant society. Although now considered a lost civilization, when the Spanish arrived, the Chicora were led by a beautiful queen and had a magnificent temple filled with the remains of their honored ancestors.
Did Hernando de Soto, a ruthless conquistador with a lust for gold, bring about their downfall? 'THE RIVER OF CORN' is a powerful tale of the destruction of these American Indians told by an experienced South Carolina fiction writer who spent his youth in the locales he writes about, places that match the Spanish accounts almost exactly. Who were the Chicora? What really happened to them?
