The Lucayan Islands
The Lucayan Islands hosted the dramatic events that led to the unfolding of the Americas. Unbeknownst to many of the inhabitants, much less the casual visitor, these so-called “useless islands” of The Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos Islands have a compelling story to tell. Seldom found or shared in the myriad of research and writings concerning the quests, conquests, and colonization of the Americas is the profound impact these islands’ heritage was meant to have on humanity's betterment.
The Bahama Islands
The Bahamas is a former British colony and is now independent. The Bahamas and the Turks & Caicos Islands are two countries within the Bahama Archipelago, or more precisely, the Lucayan Archipelago. The location and the geographical features of these islands shaped world affairs.
The Turks & Caicos Islands
In addition to being the site where Italian navigator Christopher Columbus made his first landfall in the Ancient World in 1492, The Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos Islands are surrounded by waters where the Americas were founded.
