The Indian Heritage Tableau outside of the Museum of Florida History in downtown Tallahassee was created by sculptors Bradley Cooley and Bradley Cooley Jr.. These figures symbolize the importance of the history and culture of the native people of Florida.

These are great! The wrinkled clothing looks them look so life-like.
This is a beautiful reminder of the importance of Native American heritage and the diversity of Native American peoples. The tribes of the Southeast, as you have shown here, are different than the Southwestern tribes in Arizona, for example. The share histories of mistreatment by Anglos, however.
I'd better put my glasses on, I didn't realize they were sculptures at first! Duh!

I love those.
That is a cool sculpture! It is made so real.
Great sculptures! Love the detail in them.
This is fantastic! I enlarged the pic to see the details.
This is one of the most interesting sculpture groups around.
Frozen in their tracks?! But, it's not cold enough down in Tal for that!
Evoking of so much history in the lives of these people...
God bless you!

These are terrific, Lois. I emiggened the pic to see the details. I like that they are active, not just standing sternly.
Fantastic sculptures and beautiful pic!
Interesting documentation of history and culture.
How nicely done! Seminoles?
Great shot. I love the more dynamic public sculpture we see now rather than some guy on a horse with pigeon poop on his head.
I really, really enjoy this type of experience! I also love your fire hydrant parade! :)
Wonderful tableau--love it! MB
