Excerpt from Relations of Aboriginal Culture and Environment in the Lesser AntillesNatural caves occur in many of the islands, more especially those composed of soft calcareous rock or easily eroded tufaceous deposits. These caves, in some of the islands, as objects found near them show, were resorted to for mortuary and religious purposes. Many of the islands have no forests, few contain remnants of the original tropical jungles, others are destitute even of bushes, such an island as Antigua has no fresh water except that gathered in reservoirs.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
