In the Caribbean heat, most Taino men went without clothing. Others wore a cotton or palm fiber breechcloth, called anagua. In a number of Taino villages, the length of this breechcloth was an outward symbol of the man's status in society. Taino children and unmarried women did not wear clothing. A married woman wore a cotton or palm fiber cloth that covered her from waist to mid-thigh, serving as a clear outward symbol of her status as a married woman. INSET: Untitled. |
