Extractions: Cayman Brac and Little Cayman were spotted by Christopher Columbus during his last journey to the New World on May 10, 1503. Actually on his way from Panama to Hispaniola (now home of the Dominican Republic and Haiti), Columbus was blown off course, a detour that allowed him to sight the Sister Islands. He called these islands "Las Tortugas" after the many sea turtles he found there. In his notes, the explorer wrote " ...we were in sight of two very small islands, full of tortoises, as was the sea about, inasmuch as they looked like little rocks." Later maps referred to the islands as Lagartos, probably a reference to the large lizards (possibly iguanas) seen on the island. Later, the name became Caymanas from the Carib Indian word for caymans, the marine crocodile. On a 1585 voyage, Sir Francis Drake reported sighting "great serpents called Caymanas, large like lizards, which are edible." A few years later, a French map showed Cayman Brac with crocodiles in its waters, along with a manuscript that described the reptiles. No modern residents had ever seen the toothy lizards, but in 1993 an archeological dig on Grand Cayman (and three years later on Cayman Brac) proved the existence of the crocodiles. But it was the turtle that continued to bring sailors to this region. To stave off scurvy, ships sailed to the island, then slaughtered and salted the turtles. For years, the isles served only as a pit stop on these maritime runs.

Extractions: Children under 6 - free Woodland Preserve 40 acres of the 65 acre Botanic Park is preserved in its natural state with a 0.8 mile walking trail. It is estimated that 40% of Grand Cayman's native flora is growing in the Woodland Preserve and the Woodland Trail passes through a wide variety of habitats and plant communities. Visitors will see seasonally flooded Buttonwood swamps; fresh water ponds; Mahogany forest; cactus/agave thickets; native palms including the endemic Coccothrinax proctorii; grassy meadows; and many epiphytic orchids, bromeliads, ferns and cacti. Much wildlife is also found in the preserve including fresh water turtles, lizards, agoutis, land crabs, butterflies, the endemic Blue Iguana and the endemic subspecies of the Cuban Parrot. Heritage Garden The Heritage Garden is a recreation of a traditional Cayman homesite. The Garden features an original restored turn-of-the-century Caymanian farm house complete with original furnishings, cook room, cistern, out buildings, fences and dry walls built of old coral. Much research in traditional plants based on the recollections of elderly Caymanians and documents in the National Archives has taken place. A traditional sand garden with old-time ornamentals surrounds the house. The grounds include traditional vegetables, herbs, medicinal and fibre plants. Adjacent to the sand garden is a collection of traditional fruit trees.

Extractions: Cayman Islands National Archive What is a Memory Bank? Why have the people of the Cayman Islands invested considerable time and money on one? Why is it part of the National Archive? How do you design and implement an oral history program that seeks to document the social history and traditions of a group of scattered islands? Particularly where recent development has brought rapid and dramatic changes, prompting one of our informants to say "Only three things in Cayman haven't changed: the sun, moon and stars. Everything else has changed"? And once having gathered it, how do you ensure that the information is preserved and readily accessible to the public? These are some of the questions that this paper attempts to answer. It outlines what we have done and are doing to preserve both the voices of "the unknown majority of the people" as Paul Thompson calls them, as well as that of leaders, officials, etc. (Please note that transparencies will be shown during the presentation of this paper) I am honoured to have been invited to speak to you this morning and to have the opportunity to tell you about the Cayman Islands Memory Bank, but before I do, I would like to briefly tell you something of our Islands and their history so that you can understand

Extractions: HISTORY As a small nation, the primary thrust of Barbados' diplomatic activity has been within international organizations. The island is a member of the Commonwealth and participates in its activities. Barbados was admitted to the United Nations in December 1966. Barbados joined the Organization of American States (OAS) in 1967. On July 4, 1973, Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, and Jamaica signed a treaty in Trinidad to found the Caribbean Community and Common Market (CARICOM). In May 1974, most of the remaining English-speaking Caribbean states joined CARICOM, which now has 14 members. Barbados is also a member of the Caribbean Development Bank, established in 1970, with headquarters in Bridgetown. The eastern Caribbean's Regional Security System, which associates Barbados with six other island nations, is also headquartered in Barbados. In July 1994, Barbados joined the newly established Association of Caribbean States (ACS). As a member of CARICOM, Barbados supported efforts by the United States to implement UN Security Council Resolution 940, designed to facilitate the departure of Haiti's de facto authorities from power. The country agreed to contribute personnel to the multinational force, which restored the democratically elected government of Haiti in October 1994.

General History of the Caribbean Volume VI: Methodology and Historiography of the Caribbean Summary Volume VI of the General History of the Caribbean looks at the ways historians have written the history of the region depending upon their methods of interpretation and differing styles of communicating their findings. The linguistic diversity of the region would require the ideal historian to be proficient in all its languages. However, since in general proficiency is limited to two or three languages at most, the inability of the historian to identify and interrogate relevant material scattered in a variety of depositories in the Caribbean, the US, Europe, Africa, India and China has affected the ways in which the history of the region has been written.
