 With the ultimate goal of understanding the emergence of social and political complexity in precolumbian south Florida, Dr. William H. Marquardt has directed a study in southwest Florida, the heartland of the Calusa Indians (present-day Lee, Charlotte, and Collier counties). The Southwest Florida Project is interdisciplinary, and makes use of documentary and archaeological resources in reaching an understanding of cultural changes before, during, and after European contact.

 The winter home of Thomas A. Edison, beautifully situated along the
Caloosahatchee River, is one of the greatest historic treasures within Lee County. In 1885, Thomas Edison first visited Florida. He purchased property along the Caloosahatchee River and built a vacation home. The vernacular structure, completed in 1886 and dubbed "Seminole lodge" by the Edisons, served as a winter retreat and work place for the prolific inventor until his death in 1931.
