My friend let me correct you about the steel pan not "somewhere down the line someone struck a piece of metal and like this sound" as a Tobagonian and me as a Trinidadian I'm somewhat ashamed that you don't know the history steel pan. It was invented or created by a gentleman named Winston spree Simon.
@trinihammer5 жыл бұрын
he knew, but tobagonians like all them other Caribbean islands never ever give Trinidad its due credit. I have been to st lucia and seen steel pan being played and the st Lucian tried to fool the tourists into thinking the steel pan was invented in st lucia. not a mention of Trinidad or Winston spree Simon .

Lets, not re-write history. The indentured Indians were allowed to return to India at the end of their indentureship. Approximately 1/3 returned but the majority stayed on. They stayed because they deemed life in Guyana, Trinidad & Suriname to be much better than what they left behind in India. They were of the Dalits or untouchables caste, wich is the lowest caste in India and were treated worst than dogs. At least in the new world they could shed the low caste system and re-invent themselves.
