(Worth SGC) APPENDIX A: LOCATIONAL DATA FOR GUALE AND MOCAMA MISSIONS, 1655-1685 Santa Clara de Tupiqui III (1684-1702) The third location for the Tupiqui Mission was on the northern tip of Amelia Island, probably on the abandoned site of an earlier Yamassee Indian town (see the Overview). During the 1685 Leturiondo visitation, the largely depopulated Tupiqui was noted to be 3 leagues from Santa Maria (and for this reason its inhabitants were required to come there for a formal visitation). Naming this mission Azao in 1689, Bishop Ebelino de Compostela (1689) noted it to be the northernmost town on the Island of Santa Maria, but in 1695 and 1697 Spanish officials referred to it again as Santa Clara de Tupiqui, locating it 3 leagues north of San Phelipe in 1697 (Pueyo, 1695; Menendez Marquez and Florencia, 1697). That same year the Englishman Jonathan Dickenson (1697) located this town 2-3 leagues north of St. Philip's (San Phelipe), although he referred to it as Sappataw [by 1695 the cacique of Sapala was indeed located in Tupiqui (Pueyo, 1695)]. These distances correspond well with the 1675 description of Arcos's Island of Mocama, which situated the island's northernmost Yamassee village 3 leagues north of La Tama (the later San Phelipe III), and some 3 1/2 leagues north of Santa Maria (see below). The fact that the Santa Clara de Tupiqui Mission received not one but three distinct designations between 1685 and 1697 (Tupiqui, Asajo, and Sapala), returning to Tupiqui in 1701 (Zunliga y Cerda, 1701), probably reflects a further aggregation of towns here during this final period, and may be a response to the fact that the population of Tupiqui was severely reduced by 1685 (see Document 9, and the Overview). The 1689 mention of Asajo at this mission, along with the listing of its cacique at Mission Santa Maria in 1695, suggests that some of the inhabitants of the old Asajo mission had returned from among the English allied Yamassee by that time (although they never again seem to have formed a distinct town). Late in 1702, Tupiqui III was burned by English forces under the command of Carolina Governor James Moore. AN272
