They had cultivated large areas of land in and around the present city limits and eventually left the land.  When the Seminoles arrived in the 1700s they observed these last tracts of farmed land and referred to these old fields as “Tallahassee”. The Spanish represented by de Soto arrived in the 1500s and eventually missions were set up, the largest being the San Luis Mission. The place that de Soto and his men initially encamped is believed to be less than a mile from the present state capital. General Andrew Jackson had much to contribute to the city of Tallahassee by way of leading the first Seminole War in the area. There were two battles that were fought in present day Tallahassee.
