Point of Correction: "Cohoba" (mentioned in this episode) is a hallucinogenic powered substance that was made from the grounded seeds of the Cojobana tree (Piptadenia peregrine) and not the Tobacco plant. Sincerest apologies🙏🏽

Fun fact, I carry small traces of indigenous blood. Interestingly, a small percentage of my DNA is Spanish. This may indicate that one of my ancestors came to The Bahamas from one of the Spanish Islands. It is so small that it is likely it happened in the late 1700s or early 1800s. The Lucayans were taken away to Hispanola and Cuba to be slaves. It would be interesting if some of their DNA made it back to The Bahamas. Unfortunately, research in this area is non-existent.

Were the indigenous people of Florida Arawaken too? I've read that Taino and Caribs sailed, traded and raided the Caribbean and the Gulf? Can you elaborate.
@IslandUplift3 жыл бұрын
They were Taino, predominantly a group called the Timucuan Taino. They would have sailed, traded and raided indeed, although not necessarily together (meaning that Taino and Kalinago would not have sailed and raided together). This is because of various reasons, but primarily (1) the Taino arrived at a much earlier time in the Caribbean than the Kalinago (the Kalinago arrived maybe 50 or so years before Columbus came), and (2) the Kalinago actually practiced raiding Taino settlements. I hope this response helped.

@@nessa.c1345 for the Cacique it would have been similar in some cases to the Ouboutou. The Cacique had to organize the general harvesting of the people (he had power over where they should plant, what they should plant, etc). He also had to plan and lead war efforts, act as a judge, overseer religious/ceremonial acts, and lead construction efforts as well. In fact, the Cacique tended to have more power and layway in the execution of his responsibilities than the Ouboutou did.

I think Tainos are mostly genetically indigenous Caribbean islanders who adopted Taino culture and language when the Tainos moved in from South America. So Taino migration was more of a cultural and linguistic migration than a genetic migration. But, I don't know.

Good day. This information would have been prepared from resources gathered from Caribbean historians and various historical documents. This video is also aimed at helping students prepare for their CSEC Caribbean History syllabus and, in essence, follow the CSEC Caribbean History syllabus. I have no problem in being corrected, acquiring the right knowledge is indeed essential. However, it would be good to highlight specifically what aspects of the information are "off" so that more light can be shed on this topic, instead of declaring that I have no "real knowledge", that I'm adding to "the slew of misinformation", or that it is "insulting".
