Treaty Oak (Jacksonville)

The Treaty Oak is an octopus-like Southern live oak (''Quercus virginiana'') in Jacksonville, Florida. The tree is estimated to be 250 years old〔〔(City of Jacksonville: Recreation and Community Services-Treaty Oak at Jessie Ball duPont Park )〕 and may be the single oldest living thing in Jacksonville,〔(Downtown Jacksonville website: Treaty Oak Park )〕 predating the founding of the city by Isaiah Hart during the 1820s. It is located in Treaty Oak Park in the Southbank area of Downtown Jacksonville.
==The name==
The name's origin is generally believed to be related to some local apocryphal stories about peace accords between Native Americans and Spanish or American settlers signed under its branches. In reality, the name was created by the ''Florida Times-Union'' journalist Pat Moran who, in an attempt to rescue it from destruction by developers, wrote an article in the early 1930s claiming a treaty had been signed at the site by native Floridians and early settlers and called it Treaty Oak.〔(Waymarking dot com: Jessie Ball duPont Park – Jacksonville, Florida )〕 Prior to that, the tree was known simply as Giant Oak.〔(Memory website: June 19, 2004-Treaty Oak )〕
