  • Overview Print Page Close Window
    World Directory of Minorities Americas MRG Directory –> Cuba –> Cuba Overview Print Page Close Window Cuba Overview Environment Peoples History Governance Current state of minorities and indigenous peoples Environment Cuba is the largest island in the Caribbean. It is located 150 kilometres south of the tip of the US state of Florida and east of the Yucatán Peninsula. On the east, Cuba is separated by the Windward Passage from Hispaniola, the island shared by Haiti and Dominican Republic. The total land area is 114,524 sq km, which includes the Isla de la Juventud (formerly called Isle of Pines) and other small adjacent islands. Peoples Main languages: Spanish Main religions: Christianity (Roman Catholic, Protestant), syncretic African religions The majority of the population of Cuba is 51% mulatto (mixed white and black), 37% white, 11% black and 1% Chinese (CIA, 2001). However, according to the Official 2002 Cuba Census, 65% of the population is white, 10% black and 25% mulatto. Although there are no distinct indigenous communities still in existence, some mixed but recognizably indigenous Ciboney-Taino-Arawak-descended populations are still considered to have survived in parts of rural Cuba. Furthermore the indigenous element is still in evidence, interwoven as part of the overall population's cultural and genetic heritage. There is no expatriate immigrant population. More than 75 per cent of the population is classified as urban. The revolutionary government, installed in 1959, has generally destroyed the rigid social stratification inherited from Spanish colonial rule. During Spanish colonial rule (and later under US influence) Cuba was a major sugar-producing territory.

  • Areas and Periods of Culture in the Greater Antilles Irving Rouse
    AREAS AND PERIODS OF CULTURE IN THE GREATER ANTILLES IRVING ROUSE IN PREHISTORIC TIME, the Greater Antilles were culturally distinct, differingnot only from Florida to the north and Yucatan to the west but also, less markedly,from the Lesser Antilles to the east and south (Fig. 1).1 Within this major provinceof culture,it has been customaryto treat each island or group FIG.1. Map of the Caribbeanarea. of islands as a separatearchaeological area, on the assumptionthat each contains its own variant of the Greater Antillean pattern of culture. J. Walter Fewkes proposedsuch an approachin 19152 and worked it out seven years later.3 It has since been adopted, in the case of specific islands, by Harrington,4Rainey,5 and the writer.6 1 Fewkes, 1922, p. 59. 2 Fewkes, 1915, pp. 442-443. 3 Fewkes, 1922, pp. 166-258. 4 Harrington, 1921. 5 Rainey, 1940. 6 Rouse, 1939, 1941. 248 VOL. 7, 1951 CULTURE IN THE GREATERANTILLES 249 Recent work in connectionwith the CaribbeanAnthropological Program of Yale University indicates that this approach is too limited. As the distinction between the two major groups of Indians in the Greater Antilles-the Ciboney and Arawak-has sharpened, it has become apparent that the areas of their respectivecultures differ fundamentally,with only the Ciboney areas correspond- ing to Fewkes'conception of distributionby islands.The Arawak areascut across the islands instead of enclosing them and, moreover,are sharply distinct during only the second of the three periods of Arawak occupation.It is the purpose of the presentarticle to illustratethese points and to suggest explanationsfor them.

  • Cuban Music Teaching Unit
    Thesis Advisor: Frank Martignetti THE MUSIC AND DANCE OF CUBA: by Melissa Salguero Music Education Program Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Science in Elementary Education in the School of Education University of Bridgeport 2015 © 2015 by Melissa Salguero Salguero 2 Abstract (Table of Contents) This unit is designed for 5th grade students. There are 7 lessons in this unit. Concept areas of rhythm, melody, form, and timbre are used throughout the unit. Skills developed over the 7 lessons are singing, moving, listening, playing instruments, reading/writing music notation, and creating original music. Lesson plans are intended for class periods of approximately 45-50 minutes. Teachers will need to adapt the lessons to fit their school’s resources and the particular needs of their students. This unit focuses on two distinct genres of Cuban music: Son and Danzón. Through a variety of activities students will learn the distinct sound, form, dance, rhythms and instrumentation that help define these two genres. Students will also learn about how historical events have shaped Cuban music.

He cerca de 50 anos da sua vida em atividades de pesquisa, dedicated about 50 years of his life to research, ensino e formação de recursos humanos. Victor era um teaching, and training human resources. Victor was intelectual que se interessava sobre aspectos de biologia an intellectual interested in several aspects of classical clássica, como taxonomia, sistemática, biodiversidade, biology, such as taxonomy, systematics, and biodiversity, assim como o ser humano nesse contexto, dedicou-se including the human being in this context. He also dedicated também em estudos sobre doenças transmitidas por insetos himself to studying insect-borne diseases in vulnerable em populações amazônicas vulneráveis, índios isolados, Amazon populations, isolated Indian populations, isolated ribeirinhos e comunidades isoladas.

Para determinar el efecto de la actividad eruptiva en el régimen glaciar, se realizaron balances de masa empleando técnicas fotogramétricas, mediante la generación de modelos digitales de elevación (MDE). La compa- ración de MDEs permitió establecer los cambios glaciares en términos de área y volumen tanto temporales como espaciales. Así mismo, los cambios morfológicos del área glaciar fueron determinados con base en la fotointerpretación, de manera que los datos obtenidos por este procedimiento y los obtenidos mediante la comparación de los MDE se relacionaron con la actividad eruptiva a lo largo del periodo de estudio, estableciendo así la relación entre los fenómenos volcánicos y los cambios glaciares.
