  2. Where and how they lived… • They lived in small villages at the north end of Tampa Bay from 900’s to the 1500’s.The houses were built with wooden poles that held up a roof made of palm thatches. The chief’s and tribes temple’s were each built on a mound.

  3. What they ate Because of their proximity to the bay and some of the freshwater areas, the Tocobaga fished and gathered shellfish as their source of food.

  4. Tools they made • The Tocobaga made many tools for important uses like hunting, cooking and eating. The Tocobaga made a tool by placing a tree branch through a shell that had a hole through it. Over a period of time the tree branch would cut through the shell. Then the tree branch would be cut off of the living tree. This is used for digging clams. It was called an adz.
