Taino Pottery Adorno from AD 1100, found in the Dominican Republic, is a distinctive example of the Taino people’s craftsmanship. These small, decorative objects, moreover, were often used in religious or ceremonial contexts, serving both functional and symbolic purposes. Typically, the adornos are made from clay and feature intricate designs, including geometric patterns and representations of animals or faces. They were frequently placed on pottery or used in rituals to honor deities and spirits. Ultimately, the art of making these adornos reflects the Taino’s deep connection to nature and their spiritual beliefs.<\/p>\n

The Taino are the first people Christopher Columbus met on his trip to the western hemisphere. At the time of European contact in the late 15th century, they were the principal inhabitants of most of what is now Cuba<\/a>, the Dominican Republic<\/a>, Jamaica<\/a>, Haiti<\/a>, Puerto Rico<\/a>, the Bahamas<\/a>, and the northern Lesser Antilles<\/a>.<\/p>\n
