Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indigenous Peoples History - Bahamas & Turks & Caicos Islands Civilizations The Americas' modern nations exist today because of what took place over 500 years ago in a tiny archipelago that Spanish explorers called the Lucayan Islands or the Islas de Los Lucayos (today's Bahamas and Turks and Caicos Islands). The tragic events that originated from these shores resulted in humanity's continuing drama in its quest for peace. In this insightful book, Tellis A. Bethel shares how the Old World's ruthless transformation of the Ancient World into a new one (today's Americas) began in these Lucayan Islands. This book lays a concise historical foundation for finding purpose and meaning in a tragic past that could change the world for the better. As you read Book 1, you will discover how: the Ancient World of the Western Hemisphere began with an ancient migration from northeast Asia into Alaska; the Caribbean Islands were colonized from Central and South America, and the predominant indigenous groups involved (Arawaks, Tainos, Caribs, and Lucayans); Asians, Africans, and other Europeans may have arrived in the Ancient World of the Western Hemisphere before Christopher Columbus; Columbus' special gift while at Hispaniola from a local chief changed history; the Lucayans were the first to be forcibly taken from their homeland during Columbus' first landfall in the Americas, marked the beginnings of European slavery within the Americas; Spain may not have been the first European country to have political jurisdiction over the Lucayan Islands, and much more.

Book Synopsis Lucayan Legacies by : Joanna Ostapkowicz
Download or read book Lucayan Legacies written by Joanna Ostapkowicz and published by . This book was released on 2022-11-12 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about Lucayan legacies - the heritage of the people who made the Bahamas and Turks and Caicos Islands (the Lucayan archipelago) their home from the 8th to the 16th centuries. This legacy is not simply the surviving physical record, consisting of artifacts of stone, shell and wood - it is a history entangled in the early antiquarian and archaeological interests in the region, resulting in the museum and institutional collections both within and beyond the islands. Many of the collections now in museums were acquired between 1850 and 1950, before professional archaeology emerged as a field in the region, and are largely unknown even to many archaeologists working in the Bahamas and the wider Caribbean, let alone to local island communities and the wider public. In drawing together this widely dispersed corpus, this comprehensive, richly illustrated study aims to foreground the material culture of the Lucayans, making it more accessible and reinstating it as an important part of the region's archaeological heritage.Development on the islands dating back to the 17th century has resulted in the loss of much of the earlier heritage, with a rate of destruction that has only increased in recent decades as a result of both human activity but also global climate change, seeing rising sea levels and ever-more violent storms. In this context, it is important to take stock of the islands' surviving Lucayan heritage, and integrate it back into the narratives of the past. Many of the most elaborate artifacts ever found on the islands - including a number of wood carvings - have not been recovered from archaeological excavations, but rather as a result of early guano mining and cave exploration. This has led to them often being marginalized, reinforcing an impression of a comparatively 'simple' Lucayan society.A central tenet of the book is that this impression is mistaken, and that the Lucayans had a rich material culture and were active participants in social, economic and political exchanges with the larger islands of the Greater Antilles. By integrating these legacy collections with a historiography of archaeological investigation in the region, the volume addresses topics ranging from the first occupations on the islands, to an island-by-island review of finds and settlements, and a consideration of Lucayan lifeways. Further, it explores some of the new directions this heritage is taking through the work of contemporary Bahamian and TCI artists.
Book Synopsis Islanders in the Stream: From aboriginal times to the end of slavery by : Michael Craton
Download or read book Islanders in the Stream: From aboriginal times to the end of slavery written by Michael Craton and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From two leading historians of Bahamian history comes this groundbreaking work on a unique archipelagic nation. Islanders in the Stream is not only the first comprehensive chronicle of the Bahamian people, it is also the first work of its kind and scale for any Caribbean nation. This comprehensive volume details the full, extraordinary history of all the people who have ever inhabited the islands and explains the evolution of a Bahamian national identity within the framework of neighboring territories in similar circumstances. Divided into three sections, this volume covers the period from aboriginal times to the end of formal slavery in 1838. The first part includes authoritative accounts of Columbus’s first landfall in the New World on San Salvador island, his voyage through the Bahamas, and the ensuing disastrous collision of European and native Arawak cultures. Covering the islands’ initial settlement, the second section ranges from the initial European incursions and the first English settlements through the lawless era of pirate misrule to Britain’s official takeover and development of the colony in the eighteenth century. The third, and largest, section offers a full analysis of Bahamian slave society through the great influx of Empire Loyalists and their slaves at the end of the American Revolution to the purported achievement of full freedom for the slaves in 1838. This work is both a pioneering social history and a richly illustrated narrative modifying previous Eurocentric interpretations of the islands’ early history. Written to appeal to Bahamians as well as all those interested in Caribbean history, Islanders in the Stream looks at the islands and their people in their fullest contexts, constituting not just the most thorough view of Bahamian history to date but a major contribution to Caribbean historiography.
