Local Arima ~ Santa Rosa Amerindian Community


Is the only organized area of Amerindian Survival in Trinidad and Tobago

They were formally recognized as representative of the Indigenous Amerindians of the twin-island state by the National Government in 1980.

Their Historical continuity is remarkable. As a community they have existed since the early Spanish period, and before that archaeological and proto-historical data indicate almost 5000 years of settlement in the island.

This extraordinary continuity despite the extraordinary ruptures of Spanish Conquest and Colonization is the fundamental factor in their continuing and powerful indigenous self-identification.

The Community consists of at least 400 members of which probably only 80 are active in this everyday life. It is urban and based in Arima.

Local Bug ~ Monkey Slug Caterpillar


The Monkey Slug Caterpillar is the larval form of the Hag Moth

Larvae feed on broad-leaved trees and shrubs

The Monkey Slug Caterpillar as it is one of the stinging caterpillars

It is not an aggressive species, but careless handling might cause skin contact with the stinging hairs

This unusual caterpillar is one of the most un-insect like insects

Local Couva ~ Orange Valley


At low tide, too much mudflat is exposed along the entire coast so the birds are too spread out, making observation and identification very difficult.

The rising tide forces them to congregate here

Local Statue at Claxton Bay ~ Maria


Maria trying to reach her East Indian Labourer lover

The constant witness to the car crash deaths of dozens of people near the Claxton Bay overpass, in the vicinity of the TSTT cell site is a statue perched on a hill overlooking what many consider the most deadly strip of road in the country.

And each time another person dies in that area along the Solomon Hochoy Highway, the elders turn to the lady on the hill, blaming her again, in what is one of the most enduring stories of supernatural belief in Trinidad and Tobago.

The lady, some believe, is a restless soul haunting the highway, taking lives

That part of the highway - you get an updraft of wind which make it easy to loose control as for the part of seeing the girl Maria in a white dress - thats one part of the hway you tend to get plenty mist - but there are many evil around that area - especially what we like to hear in folk law stories
