Comment by Ian C Dengler on July 19, 2013 at 11:25am: space hockey..sandcastle totalitarianism..my place in the sun.. there are many beach land grabs in S. Carolina history: continental drift, tides and hurricanes, littoral and sub-littoral life forms, clam shell imperialists, romantic tourists, and then the Early Euro Peoples: Spanish explorers were the first to explore the coastal regions of present-day South Carolina. In 1521, Francisco Gordillo sailed

to the Carolina coast from his base in Santo Domingo; no settlement was attempted, but several dozen Native Americans were enslaved.

Five years later, Lucas Vásquez de Ayllón sponsored a short-lived effort to settle several hundred persons in the Winyah Bay area (near present-day Myrtle Beach), but unfavorable weather and sickness soon forced a return to Santo Domingo. Nonetheless, later in the 1500s the Spanish established new bases in Florida and spread northward with a string of small settlements.

The French presence was established in 1562 when Jean Ribault brought a group of French Huguenots to Parris Island, but Spanish power in the area rendered the colony untenable.
