Tukuk-OS🚢 Pine Island Canal
United States · Americas · 26.66°N, 82.15°W
The Pine Island Canal (8LL34) is a canal, now heavily damaged, which crosses Pine Island in Florida from the Pineland Site on the west side of the island to the Indian Field archaeological site on the east side, a distance of about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi). The canal was dug about 500 to 1,000 years ago, and is believed to have been used as a canoe route. Much of the canal has been damaged or destroyed by development since the late 19th century. A continuation of the Pine Island Canal may have crossed Cape Coral and been part of a canoe route connecting the Pineland Site with Lake Okeechobee through the Ortona site near the head of the Caloosahatchee River.
