Numerous mounds and barrows scattered over the inland plains and heaps of shell-mounds along the seashore show that the country was formerly thickly peopled. The citadel, guarding the channels through which the Atlantic communicates with the Gulf of Mexico, has been erected on the islet of Key West, in the chain of reefs continuing the east coast of Florida as far as the Marquesas and Tortugas. Fig. 83. — Key West. Scale 1 : 100, 000. Wc. T oP b [~1 Depths. Key West is the Cayo Hueso, that is, ..." Key of the Bone " of the Spaniards, so named from its rocks looking like bleached animal remains. The islet, which is only five by two miles, rises not more than 18 or 20 feet above the main level of the sea. Nevertheless, a considerable town has sprung up on this reef almost awash with the waves. Key West has the advantage of possessing an excellent well-sheltered haven, accessible to vessels drawing from 20 to 23 feet. Thanks also to its commanding position between two seas, it has become the natural port of call for most of the lines of steamers plying to and fro in the track of the Gulf Stream through KEY WEST.
