S'y sont rencontrés et souvent confrontés Caraïbes, Européens, Africains et plus tard, des communautés venues de Chine, du Moyen-Orient, des Indes. Leur coexistence a engendré des attitudes et des habitudes originales qui sont propres à chacune des îles. Ce sont ces affinités que les Éditions CARIBEENNES tenteront de mieux faire connaître en jetant des ponts culturels entre les bras de mer.

TRAMIL ethnopharmalogical survey in Les Saintes (Guadeloupe, French West Indies): A comparative study

“…The black color never prevails because the ethnic stocks was, at 19th century, in inverse proportion with a majority of Whites peoples in comparison with the Blacks in the island of Terre-de-Haut. This is a unique case of mixed race in the Caribbean (Bonniol, 1980;Bonniol and Hegesippe, 1980). Actually, the main human activity in these islands is fishing.…”

“…and Acacia sp. (Bonniol, 1980;Portecop, 1982). This latest vegetation is more developed and preserved at Terrede-Bas where the area are less urbanized than Terre-de-Haut (IGN, 2002).…”

Size estimation of pre‐Columbian Caribbean fish

“…The main purpose of the development of this set of biometric parameters was to better interpret where species were caught (and how), according to their modes and place of life during their growth cycle, because we can observe specimens that are born in one ecosystem and mature in another (Nagelkerken et al, ). So the elaboration of hypotheses about Amerindian fishery strategies have generally been based on the ethology of the species from bibliographical sources and from ethnographic and ethnohistorical data (Archambault, ; Aubin‐Roy, ; Benoist, ; Blanchet et al, ; Bonniol, ; Bouchon et al, ; Carpenter, ; Froese & Pauly, ; Handler, ). The Amerindians from the Lesser Antilles are close in genetics, language, space, and time with the last Amerindians from North America.…”

So the elaboration of hypotheses about Amerindian fishery strategies have generally been based on the ethology of the species from bibliographical sources and from ethnographic and ethnohistorical data (Archambault, 1972;Aubin-Roy, 1968;Benoist, 1959;Blanchet et al, 2002;Bonniol, 1980;Bouchon et al, 2002;Carpenter, 2002;Froese & Pauly, 2018;Handler, 1970 • The pelagic channel fish zooarchaeological populations ( Figure 5) were large fishes, normally distributed, such as mackerels/tunas/ bonitos, and jacks with a bimodal distribution, which translates to several capture techniques: bow and arrow, harpoon, large nets, and longlines. The deployment of these various fishing technologies in such habitats suggests that pre-Columbian people would have most likely used watercraft.…”
