065 Taino Ritual Seat 2 Jul 2010
Fri, 2 Jul 10
Wooden seat carved in the shape of an ancestor spirit by the Taino, one of the pre-European, native Caribbean peoples. Neil MacGregor, Director of the British Museum, tells the story of a beautifully carved four-legged stool which has survived the destruction of the Caribbean culture that produced it. Its long shape and wide-eyed face probably belonged to a chief, or 'cacique', of the Taino people who originated in South America and populated the whole region.
