Location: Section 38, Township 13 – South, Range 29 East, on Fish Hawk Point.

"[1] Fort Caben was built on the banks of Crescent Lake (near St. Johns Park in present-day Flagler County, Florida) by the U.S. Army during the Second Seminole War to prevent Seminole Indian raiding parties, that were traveling on boats and canoes on the St. Johns River, from attacking and looting the numerous plantations that were located south of St. Augustine.

Fort Caben was most likely a blockhouse style fortification as it was located near a waterway, and the area provided a vast number of trees for building materials.

[2][3] Fort Caben was likely occupied by U.S. Army troops on a part-time basis during the Second Seminole War for training, reconnaissance and defensive purposes.

Today, the site of Fort Caben is in a densely wooded and secluded area and would most likely require Lidar technology and an experienced archaeologist to locate the exact spot where it was built.
