........................People were drawn to this site, officially designated CH-9 and once popularly called the Hippie Commune Mound, by stories of pirate Jose Gaspar, for whom, supposedly, the island of Gasparilla was named.

According to legend, Gaspar buried much of his ill-gotten gains in Indian mounds in Charlotte Harbor.

So, find an Indian mound, and you might find gold doubloons and pieces of eight.

Only one problem: Jose Gaspar never existed...............................
