That information is wrong. There were a few Native American towns and cities here long before European arrived. Archeologist have proven it

Marty, the source is stating it is the oldest permanently occupied European settlement. I agree archeology has proven there are Native American settlements much older than the arrival of Europeans, but not continuously occupied.

I only saw “oldest city” not European. Then, there was no United States in 1565.
