Geoff,
 
I heard a story on this on All Things Considered last night (a radio
magazine based on Radio 4's Today or PM or whatever).  The host interviewed
a fellow named Carr, I think, who is the archaeologist in charge, I think,
or used to be in charge of archaeology for the state in that region.  He
was convinced the site was associated with the local natives and not with
Mayans (there are two artifacts only that look like Maya things, and, as he
said, two artifacts do not a culture make).  You might be able to listen to
this interview if they've posted it to the ATC page on the National Public
Radio web page (www.npr.org) or you might try one of the local newspapers'
web sites or check to see if the Florida Division of Historic Preservation
has its own web site.
 
Boy, I thought I listened carefully but I guess listening didn't lodge in
memory.
 
Cheers,
Mary B.
