Tequesta Indian Language
The Tequesta Indians were a tribe of eastern Florida, closely connected with the
Ais.
Their language was never recorded. Like the Calusa, the Tequesta were devastated by
European diseases. Some of the survivors were sent to Cuba by the Spanish, while
others may have merged with other Floridian Indians and eventually joined the
Seminole tribe.
