The main island of Antigua and Barbuda, Antigua is a Caribbean island and also forms part of the group called the Lesser Antilles Islands.

The Dominican Republic was colonized by the Spanish in 1492, and was in fact the site of the first permanent European settlement in both North and South America. While Spanish language, religion and traditions have definitely made a long lasting mark on Dominican culture, the people have created their own national identity. Spanish is the official language, but it is not the same dialect as what is spoken in Spain or other Spanish speaking countries.

We know Christopher Columbus left Spain on his second voyage to the New World in 1493. His intention was to colonize those islands which he had seen on his first exploratory voyage in 1492. We also know he made his presence known on several of the Caribbean Islands during those two voyages, but it wasn’t until his fourth visit to the region that he actually touched down on mainland Central America.

The Tainos were a pre-Columbian indigenous people living in the Caribbean region. Christopher Columbus met their large population when he landed on the island of Hispaniola in 1492. In two previous articles of this series we explored the history of the Tainos, and their status in present day populations of the Caribbean. We learned that although historians had previously declared the Tainos race to be extinct, one study done in Puerto Rico found that over 61% of the population had Amerindian mitochondrial DNA. Those results supported the findings of biology professor Juan Carlos Martinez at the University of Puerto Rico, who conducted his own studies. He suggested that the prevalence of indigenous mitochondrial DNA in people of the Caribbean may be even more than that of Caucasoid and Negroid.

When Christopher Columbus arrived at the island of Hispaniola, there were five Taino territories. Each community had its own chieftain to which everyone declared their fealty for. The island of Hispaniola is what we now know as that which is shared by Haiti and the Dominican Republic, thus the island that is now Cuba lies directly northwest. Just off the eastern most point of Hispaniola is another island nation, Puerto Rico. Plus of course there is Jamaica towards the west off the coast of Haiti. All of these regions were the home of the Tainos.
