A subject that appears to be one that is not often discussed here on AH.com is the Ajacán mission. As a matter of fact, I have only found one thread with any mention of it. After speaking to some individuals who work at Jamestown and people who were somewhat familiar with the subject, I decided to look more into it. Outposts had been set up by the Spanish in the area of Georgia and the Carolinas prior to Ajacán but they would eventually be destroyed. There have be various reports about the location of the mission but it was definitely near the Chesapeake Bay.
The drought that had occurred in that region around the time of Ajacán's establishment is an important factor to consider in regard to its survival. However, what else would be needed in order for the Spanish to have a successful mission and possible settlement at Ajacán? If successful, what influence will this success have upon other nations that will eventually be involved in colonization?
