History
The Cades Pond culture was preceded by the more widely-spread Deptford culture, and succeeded by the Alachua culture, which covered approximately the same area. The area of the Cades Pond culture was used intermittently by Deptford culture people prior to 100 CE. Late Deptford people established permanent villages in the area around 100 and the Cades Pond culture developed out of the Deptford culture. Weeden Island ceremonial pottery appeared in Cades Pond mounds around 300 CE. Pottery found in Cades Pond villages and middens was largely undecorated, and resembled contemporary ceramics of the St. Johns culture. Around 600 the Cades Pond culture was replaced by the unrelated Alachua culture.
