Arawak - JAHM Poetry

Group of indigenous people who encountered Christopher Columbus, that picture we can never compass
They lived in Greater Antilles, built villages
They were communicating in and spoke Arawakan languages, this era is about very past and long ages
The term Arawak applied by Europeans specifically to the South American group, diving in history and imagining it is time travelling trip.

It assumed that they also called as Taino, to distinguish themselves from their group form neighbouring Island Caribs, but assumptions never drives
Arawakan languages may have grown in the Orinoco River Valley, sometimes historical aspects are difficult to perfectly tally
There are signs of regional networks which reflects complexity and diversity of this culture, looks like they were highly mature
They use soil modification techniques, may be they were gifted and knowledgeable geeks.

Due to conflicts with Spanish and diseases thousands of taino people died every year, that picture would be really deadly, i swear
When unknown diseases attacks, then there are no plans
Many civilizations destroyed by unidentified diseases, which never left it's keys
This situation pushed people towards enslavement, this environment was displacement.

Going back in time and looking into history is a need, to see cultures are planted with which seed
You will find no difference, domination was preference
Times changed and humanity travelled a long, but somewhere deep down hold the same song
Let's walk, with the History of Arawak.
