Overview
Though the Santee and Hopsewee Plantations are located nearby, the historical contexts of either plantation determine many of the cultural and economical differences. The Santee Plantation is on the south side of the South Santee River in Charleston County while the Hopsewee Plantation is situated near North Santee further north in Georgetown County. As with many plantations in the region in South Carolina, the historical context can largely be traced to the eighteenth (18th) century, between the years 1701 and 1800 and likely representative of the late colonial era in which South Carolina and, later, Georgia would have been settled.
