This episode is an introduction to the world of the Taino, the largest indigenous group on the Greater Antilles. First, the sources we have for understanding it and, second, the broad cultural frontiers that define it. This is part I, with the next episode digging deeper into what daily life was like for the Taino.
This episode is a bit denser than most and in future episodes like it will be labelled as "bonus" episodes or something similar. Optional asides that are deeper dives, getting into things like historiography, methods, sources, etc.
