The monument erected by Jean Ribault during the voyage of 1562 is shown. There are various items on the ground around the monument, including a bow and quiver of arrows, baskets of foodstuffs, and other containers. In the foreground, an Indigenous man stands beside a colonist and gestures to the monument. The Indigenous man wears a headdress with racoon tails, a garment around his waist, a decorative chain of beads across his body, and large earrings. René de Laudonnière stands beside him.
