Extractions: History - The story so far It is thought that Anguilla was a regional centre of the Saladoid Amerindians. The first inhabitants of Anguilla, the Indians, settled on the island as early as the 4 th Cent AD. According to archaeological findings, the island was a regional centre for the Indians. There are remnants of large settlements around Rendezvous Bay and Sandy Ground. On the whole, 42 Amerindian archaeological sights have been uncovered on the island. In 1967, St. Kitts-Nevis-Anguilla gained full control in domestic affairs and achieved the status of a State in association with UK. The resentment of being incorporated with St. Kitts came to head during this time and Anguilla severed off all ties from the Union. Tensions on the island mounted and finally the British troops arrived to restore peace on the island. It was in 1980 that matters were resolved when Anguilla became a Separate Dependent Territory.

Archaeological finds indicate that the island was a regional center for the Arawak Indians, who had sizable villages at Sandy Ground, Meads Bay, Rendezvous Bay and Island Harbour. The Carib Indians, who eventually overpowered the Arawaks, called the island Malliouhana. Early Spanish explorers named the island Anguilla, which means 'eel,' apparently because of its elongated shape. The British established the first permanent European colony on Anguilla in 1650, and despite a few invasion attempts by the French, it has remained a Crown Colony ever since. While arid conditions thwarted the development of large plantations, the island did become an exporter of tobacco, cotton and salt. In the early 1800s Anguilla's population began to taper off from a peak of 10,500, and the island slid into a slow decline, largely forgotten by the rest of the world. In 1967, Britain sought to loosen its colonial ties by lumping Anguilla into an alignment with the islands of St Kitts and Nevis, the nearest British dependencies. The intent was for the three islands to form a new Caribbean nation, the Associated State of St Kitts-Nevis-Anguilla, with Britain continuing to hold the reins on foreign affairs and defense.

The following year the French also settled part of St Kitts, a situation Warner tolerated in part to gain an upper hand against the native Caribs living on the island. After they massacred the Caribs in a series of battles, the British and French turned on each other and St Kitts changed hands between the two several times before the 1783 Treaty of Paris brought the island firmly under British control. Sugar plantations thrived on St Kitts during this era. Nevis has a similar history. In 1628 Sir Warner sent a party of about 100 colonists to establish a British settlement on the western coast. Although their original settlement, near Cotton Ground, was destroyed in an earthquake in 1680, Nevis went on to prosper, developing one of the most affluent plantation societies in the Eastern Caribbean. As on St Kitts, most of the island's wealth was built upon the labor of African slaves toiling in the island's sugar cane fields. The local tourist industry got its start in the late 18th century on Nevis, where thermal baths made it a popular retreat for Britain's elite.

The intent was for the three islands to form a new Caribbean nation, the Associated State of St Kitts-Nevis-Anguilla, with Britain continuing to hold the reins on foreign affairs and defense. Anguillians wanted no part of the new state, which they viewed as subjugation to St Kitts, their more powerful neighbor. Within a few months, the Anguillians had armed themselves and revolted, forcing St Kitts police off the island and blocking the runway to prevent a 'reinvasion' by Kittitian forces.
The History Of CARICOM THE history OF CARICOM. Kitts/Nevis/anguilla, Saint Lucia and St. Conference was theestablishment of the Commonwealth Caribbean regional Secretariat on May 1 http://www.caricom.org/history.htm
Extractions: THE HISTORY OF CARICOM T he establishment of the Caribbean Community and Common Market (CARICOM) was the result of a 15-year effort to fulfil the hope of regional integration which was born with the establishment of the British West Indies Federation in 1958. It was a Federal Government drawn from 10 member islands. Although a plan for a Customs Union was drawn up, emphasis was not placed on economic aspects of Federation during the four years of its existence. Economically the Region remained as it had been for centuries and not even Free Trade was introduced between the Member Countries during this period. The West Indies Federation came to an end in 1962 but its end, in many ways must be regarded as the real beginning of what is now the Caribbean Community. T he end of the Federation meant the beginning of more serious efforts on the part of the political leaders in the Caribbean to strengthen the ties between the islands and mainland by providing for the continuance and strengthening of the areas of cooperation that existed during the Federation. To this end in mid-1962 a Common Services Conference was called to take decisions on these services, the major ones among them being the University of the West Indies (UWI), founded in 1948 and the Regional Shipping Services set up during the Federation to control the operation of the two ships donated in 1962 by the government of Canada - the Federal Palm and the Federal Maple.
Extractions: Kat (American Eel): Life History Scientific Name: Anguilla rostrata Mary Jane Paulette, Research Assistant Paqtnkek Fish and Wildlife Commission January 2002 Fact Sheet 6 The Lifecycle of Kat (American Eel) Kat is a catadromous fish which means its spends a majority of its life in fresh water prior to spawning in the sea. The actual birthplace of Kat is not known but the smallest larvae are found in the Sargasso Sea, east of the Bahamas in the Atlantic Ocean (see map on next page). There are no documented cases of the presence of a mature Kat in this area at this stage of life. It begins its life between January and March as transparent larvae, shaped like a willow leaf. These feed on plankton over the next year, and develop into the transparent, glass eel, while traveling in the Gulf Stream to the North American coast. This is the larvae of Kat (Anguilla rostrata) as it approaches the North American Eastern Coast from the Sargasso Sea. Image available on-line from: http://www.ecoscope.com/ asburyp1.htm

In 1949, the Pan American Sanitary Organization and the World Health Organization agreed that the Pan American Sanitary Bureau would serve as the Regional Office of the World Health Organization for the Americas. In 1950, the Pan American Sanitary Organization was recognized as a fully autonomous and specialized inter-American organization. Thus, the Organization became a component of both the United Nations and the inter-American systems. The XV Pan American Sanitary Conference (San Juan, Puerto Rico, 1958) changed the name of the Pan American Sanitary Organization to the Pan American Health Organization. The name of the Pan American Sanitary Bureau remained unchanged. The fundamental purposes of the Pan American Health Organization are to promote and coordinate the efforts of the countries of the Region of the Americas to combat disease, lengthen life, and promote the physical and mental health of their people.
