Spanish Missions in Georgia

What were Spanish Missions? Spanish missions were created for the purpose of converting natives to the Catholic religion and for instructing them in how they should behave as new Catholics (new language and customs).

Where in Georgia were they? Leading mission 1st ALONG THE COAST OF GEORGIA

(So…from the mid 1500s - late 1600s) When were they there? 1568-1684 (So…from the mid 1500s - late 1600s) De Soto in GA – 1540

But really…Why did the Spanish want missions in Georgia? The Spanish wanted to keep control of the land they claimed was theirs. Juan Ponce De Leon – 1513 Hernando De Soto - 1540 This includes their right to protect Spanish shipping and trade from the French, British, and pirates.

Why did the Spanish want missions in Georgia? HOLD UP! Oh, no you didn't! Why did the Spanish want missions in Georgia? - The French were the actually first to try to colonize the Southeast in 1562! Protestants of France ("Huguenots“) were rebelling against Catholics. The queen was determined to end the bloodshed and thought that a colony in the New World could serve as a safe place for the persecuted Huguenots as well as a base for raiding the treasure fleets of Spain.

Why did the Spanish want missions in Georgia? These French settlements on land which Spain considered to be hers aroused Spanish ANGER!

How did the Spanish attempt to solve the “French problem”? Send in Pedro Menendez de Avilles!!! 1565 - Menendez established the city of St. Augustine (the oldest permanent city in the United States!) 1566 - Menendez made a trip up Georgia’s coast, landed on the island of St. Catherines, & found an old Indian chief named Guale (pronounced "Wallie") with whom he made friends.

GUALE

How did the Spanish attempt to solve the “French problem”? Leaving his nephew and a few other Spaniards there, he departed but returned a few weeks later with a group of 50 people to create a settlement. His agents in the new territory were priests and soldiers. Priest - converting the Indians to the Christian faith Soldiers - there to protect the mission

So…what really was the purpose of Spanish Missions? R – Religion – convert natives to the Catholic religion. N – New language and customs - Teach natives Spanish and how they should behave as new Catholics. G – Give new jobs/roles - Make natives serve as workers (slaves/servants) and soldiers on behalf of the Spanish.

What's that spell? Well…kinda… W R O N G YOUR JOB IS TO JUDGE/EVALUATE WHAT THE SPANISH DID BY SETTING UP MISSIONS IN GA AND TELL ME WHETHER OR NOT YOU THINK IT WAS “WRONG!”

Where there any examples of violence between the Spanish and Natives? Many examples of violence between Spanish and Natives for the first 100 years of Spanish missions. 1597 - Juanillo’s Rebellion – a Guale Indian who was set to be “mico chief” was not given the job because Friar Pedro Corpa did not approve of Juanillo as a leader. Well...Juanillo killed him!

We’ll read about it tomorrow! And this led to a massive revolt called "Juanillo's Rebellion." We’ll read about it tomorrow!
