Minatti was a slave settlement east of Saddle Creek near Lake Hancock in Florida after the First Seminole War.[1] It was located on the lake's south shore.[2] It was about two miles from where Oponay, an Okmulgee Upper Creek allied with Red Stick leader Red McQueen, lived. The name of the village means manatee.[3] Oponay had peach, corn, potatoes among his crops worked by his Blacks slaves in the village.[1] The settlement was destroyed by the end of the Second Seminole War in 1842.[4]

The location of the settlement is behind the Polk County Sheriff's Office's Burnham-McCall Training Center.
