Indian Tribes and Languages of the Caribbean Culture Area

Caribbean Culture Area

This is an index to the Native American language and cultural information on our website pertaining to tribes of the Caribbean culture area.

Please note that while this region is referred to as the "Caribbean culture area" or sometimes the "Circum-Caribbean culture area," this is an anthropological designation, not a geographical one. As you can see from the map, most of this culture area is located in Central and South America, not just on the Caribbean islands. If you're looking for a list of languages spoken on the Caribbean islands themselves, click here.
