Amaxura
In January 1843, a bill was introduced in the Florida House to create a new county to be called “Amaxura”, which was the Spanish name for the Withlacoochee River. The bill was amended, with the name being changed to Hernando in honor of Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto. In creating the statue of ‘Amaxura’, the artists have incorporated Seminole symbols that refer to aspects of Seminole culture and dress, religion and beliefs, environment, and diet.Artists: Diane M.
