    In this episode we look at Cuba's geography, not simply as a space where things happened but as a dynamic place, whose features would shape how Cubans interacted with it and which Cubans would shape in turn.

  • Episode 2: Antediluvian, Part I
    Aug 31 2020

    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.
