This book presents the results of an excavation at the prehistoric settlement of Pointe de Caille, on the Atlantic coast in the south of the island of Saint Lucia, carried out by the University of Vienna. The archaeological excavations in this settlement are the most extensive ever undertaken in the Lesser Antilles. They resulted in the discovery of a more than 800-year habitation of an area, from, according to carbon 14 analyses, the 6th/7th centuries to the 13th/14th centuries AD that was previously almost unknown archaeologically. A settlement of such longevity, extending over the whole Postsaladoid era, is exceptional in the Caribbean, and in contrast to the previous Saladoid era, exhibits a great cultural diversity. This study focuses on answering the many questions associated with this development as well as the social and cultural changes which took place during this long period. The changes are particularly marked in funerary customs since from the Saladoid Period to the late Suazoid a gradual development towards a more socio-politically complicated structure is especially noticeable.
