In 1566, Juan Pardo left the Spanish town of St. Elena on the South Carolina coast and traveled into North Carolina in search of an overland route to Mexico. Archaeological investigations at the Berry site (31BK22), north of Morganton in Burke County, provide evidence for Pardo's expeditions through the Catawba River valley.
