Floridas sinkholes, a geological marvel and occasional hazard, trace their history back thousands of years. Formed by the dissolution of soluble bedrock, particularly limestone, beneath the Earths surface, these depressions have shaped Floridas landscape. Over time, the states unique hydrological conditions, characterized by porous limestone and fluctuating water levels, have made it particularly susceptible to sinkhole formation. Native Americans and early settlers navigated these natural features, but it wasnt until the 20th century that the phenomenon gained significant scientific attention. Today, Floridas sinkholes continue to captivate researchers, engineers, and residents alike, serving as a reminder of the dynamic forces shaping the Sunshine States terrain.
