In this episode of Whispers of the Past, we journey back to the pre-colonial era of St. Eustatius, once known as Aloi Island, the “Land of the Cashew.” We delve into the rich heritage of the island’s first inhabitants, uncovering a vibrant, matriarchal society where women held powerful roles and guided their communities.
With insights from archaeologists and historians, this episode explores the island’s indigenous origins, revealing the cultural practices, social structures, and environmental adaptations that defined the Saladoid Amerindian way of life. We highlight their profound connection to the land, their beliefs, and a legacy of resilience that continues to echo beneath layers of colonial history.
