Cuba year 2019 stamps Cultural Heritage /Aborigine American History complete set MNH(**)

Cuba’s cultural heritage includes a rich history of indigenous peoples, known as the Taíno, who inhabited the island before the arrival of European colonizers. The Taíno civilization thrived in Cuba and other parts of the Caribbean for centuries, leaving behind a legacy of cultural traditions, artifacts, and archaeological sites that continue to influence Cuban culture today. Archaeological excavations have uncovered a wealth of Taíno artifacts throughout Cuba, including pottery, stone tools, ceremonial objects, and petroglyphs. These artifacts provide insights into the daily life, rituals, and artistic expressions of the Taíno people. Cuban cultural festivals and celebrations often include references to indigenous heritage, with performances, rituals, and ceremonies that pay homage to Taíno traditions. These festivals serve as opportunities to preserve and promote indigenous cultural heritage.
