The Okefenokee Swamp is not technically a swamp. It is a type of sphagnum bog that sits in a layer of peat. It was formed by a basin that was shaped like a saucer in the ocean floor filling with water from the rain. This caused plant and moss growth that eventually died and layered up to create the modern 'swamp.'

How was the Okefenokee Swamp created?
Lots and lots of fresh water is the key to how the Okefenokee Swamp was created. The land was already naturally flat, and it held the water very well. Vegetation lives and dies and becomes part of the ground cover (mostly peat) in the swamp. The fresh water keeps the vegetation from rotting, and this vegetation adds to the base on which the swam was built. Lots of water and lots of plants in a warm, humid environment created and now maintain the Okefenokee, the land of the trembling earth. It's an extraordinary and marvelous natural wonder, and you can find links below to begin to uncover more about this incredible place.
