SATOURIONA

'Satouriona' was a leader of the Timucua in what is now Jacksonville during the arrival of the French Huguenots under Jean Ribault in 1562. His people came into direct contact with the French when Fort Caroline was built by René Goulaine de Laudonnière two years later. After initial conflict with the Europeans, partially the result Laudonnière's reneging on a deal to help battle the Potano, Satouriona made peace with them. In 1568 Satouriona aided Dominique de Gourges in attacking the fort, which fell into Spanish hands in 1565.
Satouriona and his family are depicted in several of Jacques le Moyne's engravings.
