| LUCAYAN - The Lucayan Tainos lived on the islands for many peaceful centuries until Columbus' arrival destroyed their way of life. Lucayan artifacts such as the wooden duho tell the story of a spiritual, advanced people. Historians say the duho is a large, reclining Chieftain's seat. Decorated with carved symbols, these seats have been found in caves in The Bahamas and may have been used in funeral ceremonies and/or as birthing stools. Our stoneware duhos are hand-built sculptural pieces and also make great candle holders and soap dishes. Click "Next" to see terra cotta vases. |
