Professor Suzannah Lipscomb and Dr. Alice Samson explore the dynamic and complex encounters between Europeans and Indigenous Peoples of the Caribbean following Christopher Columbus's arrival in 1492. Discover the stories of fierce resistance, unexpected alliances, and the blending of religious traditions, enhanced by unique archaeological evidence from the Isle de Mona. They shed new light on the cultural dialogues and exchanges that defined a momentous period in history.
