History
Prior to European colonization, the Tequesta were the indigenous people of what is now Davie. A few campsites and graves have been found in Davie, the oldest dating back 5,000 to 7,000 years in Pine Island Ridge. After Spanish colonization, many of the Tequesta died and the remaining few either escaped to Havana with the Spanish when Florida became a British colony, or they assimilated into the newly arrived Seminoles in the late 18th century.
At the turn of the 20th century, when the state of Florida reclaimed 156 square miles (400 km2) of swampland, out-of-state businessman Robert Parsell Davie purchased 44 square miles (110 km2), to develop farms and establish the town of "Zona"; within a few years, the townspeople renamed it "Davie" in his honor.
