Abstract

Cut into the limestone bedrock shore of the Miami River where it enters Biscayne Bay, the Miami Circle has captured local, state, national and international attention since its discovery in September 1998. This paper captures the information, insight, and cultural values expressed by the various contributors to the conference on "Sacred Sites and Modem Lives: The Miami Circle and Beyond." It highlights the lessons that enable us to better understand the significance of the Miami Circle's past, its present implications for the South Florida community, and visions of its future.
