    Jonathan Dickinson Survives Florida Cannibals...Right?

    When Jonathan Dickinson washed ashore in Florida in the late 1600s, history books told us to expect brutality, suffering… and cannibals. But what if that’s not what actually happened? In this episode of This Is Legends of Yesterday, we unravel the strange contradictions surrounding Dickinson’s shipwreck and his encounters with Florida’s Indigenous people—who, according to his own account, treated him not as prey, but as a human being.
