Ladies of Lore

Atabey: The Cosmic Mother of the Caribbean


Listen Later

Atabey, the Taino Mother of creation, once shaped land, sea, and sky. In this episode, we explore her as life-giver and cosmic force—and trace how her image shifted through colonisation, erasure, and survival. From sacred caves to modern memory, we follow the story of a goddess who endures.
