Notes: Anthropological Papers of the University of Arizona Number 28. Conference papers. “…the last remaining indigenous peoples, who, chiefly because of their isolated locations, have managed to survive the terrible depredations of almost four centuries of European contact. Yet despite this widespread tragedy, a relatively large number of Indians whose languages belong to the important Carib stock have been able to adjust to these pressures, and at least for the present, have escaped the seemingly inevitable fate of indigenous ethnic extinction.” (From Chapter 1)
