Anacaona ( b.1474?-1502) was a Taíno cacica or female chief who ruled over the chiefdom of Xaragua, one of the 5 chiefdoms of Bohío (which the Spanish renamed to Hispaniola, now known as the 2 countries of Haiti 🇭🇹 and the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴). Her name comes from the Taíno words “ana” = flower & “caona” = gold.

In addition to her famed beauty, Anacaona was also known for her intelligence, poetry and work as a talented composer. Her work was commonly performed at areítos, a religious song & dance performed by Taínos. She was also celebrated for her ability to communicate with ancestral spirits called zemi. Anacaona was married to Caonábo, the cacique of nearby Maguana. They had 1 daughter named Higuemota.

On Dec 4 1492, Christopher Columbus arrived in Bohío in the kingdom of Márien. Relations between the Taínos & Spaniards were initially friendly, with the Taíno gifting their European visitors gold, corn and other precious metals. The Spanish however, did not return the favour 😒. In 1493, the Spanish established a colony to excavate gold, kidnapping and enslaving the Taíno to feed their greed. Many Taíno women were r*ped and other natives who rebelled were brutally m*rd*red. 😔

In 1493, Anacaona’s husband Caonábo was shipped off to Spain for trying to destroy a Spanish colony. He later died in a shipwreck. Following the death of her brother, she returned to Xaragua to rule as cacica.

Although there is some disagreement on historical accounts of Anacaona’s death, it’s generally believed that during a lavish welcome ceremony for visiting governor Nicolás Ovando, the Spanish ambushed the Taínos. The Taínos fought as hard as they could, killing 50 Spaniards. A high number considering Spain had more advanced military technology. Unfortunately the natives were outnumbered and Anacaona was eventually hanged.

After committing g*nocide, Ovando was deposed & called back to Spain on the order of King Ferdinand in 1504, dying 2 years later.
