Jamaica was originally inhabited by the Taino people, but their population declined due to disease and forced labor after the Spanish colonized the island in 1494 and established sugar plantations worked by African slaves. In 1655, the British took control of Jamaica from the Spanish and developed a profitable sugar industry relying on slave labor. Jamaica gained independence from Britain in 1962 and continues to face challenges while also making cultural contributions to music, sports, and cuisine.

Colonization - Early American Culture slides.pptx
The document summarizes early colonization efforts in North and South America by European powers between the 15th-18th centuries. It discusses how Spain relied on conquistadors to explore the New World for land and wealth, granting them encomiendas over indigenous peoples. It also describes how Portugal focused on sugar plantations using African slaves, and how the fur trade drove French, English, and Dutch colonization of North America. The document outlines the founding of colonies like Jamestown, Plymouth, and Massachusetts Bay, and discusses challenges faced by early settlers as well as the spread of slavery.
The golden Age of Spain and Portugal
Portugal and Spain first rose to economic prominence through worldwide trading activity starting in the 15th century. They were motivated by spreading Christianity ("God"), gaining fame and wealth ("glory and gold"). Portugal's Prince Henry the Navigator established a navigation school and sponsored voyages down the west African coast. Bartolomeu Dias was the first to sail around the Cape of Good Hope in 1487. Vasco da Gama reached India in 1498, establishing Portugal as a colonial power. Spain sponsored Columbus' voyages westward beginning in 1492, leading to Spanish conquests of the Aztec and Inca empires and colonization of the Americas. This established Spain and Portugal as the first global colonial empires, controlling

Slavery in Jamaica [Autosaved]
Slavery played a pivotal role in Jamaica's history from the 16th century onwards. As the British developed large sugar plantations in the 17th-18th centuries, Jamaica's population shifted from majority native Taino people to over 300,000 enslaved Africans supporting the sugar industry by 1800. Enslaved people faced brutal conditions and oppression, leading to numerous rebellions against slavery. The growth of abolitionist sentiment in Britain along with the scale of the 1831 Christmas Rebellion contributed to the final emancipation of all enslaved people in Jamaica in 1838.
PPT - A Brief Socio-Political and Historical Survey of Jamaica.pptx
The history of Jamaica over the past 500 years has been marked by struggles for freedom and resistance to adversity. Early inhabitants were the Taino people, who were later conquered by the Spanish in the 1500s. The British took control in 1655 and established sugar plantations that relied on the slave trade. Jamaica became very profitable for the British due to sugar exports but was marked by unrest between planters, slaves, and Maroon communities. Slavery was abolished in 1838, leading the plantation economy to collapse and widespread poverty among the freed slaves. Jamaica transitioned to a crown colony under direct British control in the 1860s as it rebuilt its economy and society after emancipation.

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) final (1).pptx
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) assessment was created by Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers in the mid-20th century to make Carl Jung's work on psychological types more accessible. It aims to provide insight into how people perceive the world and make decisions. The first published version was released in 1962 after over 20 years of development. The MBTI categorizes personalities into 16 types based on preferences for extraversion/introversion, sensing/intuition, thinking/feeling, and judging/perceiving. While generally reliable, it only measures preferences and not abilities. The MBTI is commonly used to improve communication, teamwork and professional development when not in

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.Does Over-Masturbation Contribute to Chronic Prostatitis.pptx

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

Jamaica History.pptx
- 1. The History of Jamaica
- 2. Introduction • Jamaica is an island nation located in the Caribbean Sea. Its history is a fascinating blend of indigenous cultures, European colonization, and African slavery.
- 3. The Taino People • The Taino people were the indigenous inhabitants of Jamaica before the arrival of Europeans. They lived in small communities and were skilled farmers, fishermen, and hunters. Unfortunately, their population was decimated by disease and forced labor under the Spanish colonial regime.
- 4. Spanish Colonization • In 1494, Christopher Columbus arrived in Jamaica on his second voyage to the New World. The island was claimed for Spain, and over the next century, the Spanish built settlements and established sugar plantations. The enslaved labor force was made up primarily of Africans, who were brought over to replace the dwindling Taino population.
- 5. British Colonization • In 1655, the British invaded Jamaica and captured it from the Spanish. They quickly established a profitable sugar industry, which relied heavily on the labor of enslaved Africans. Jamaica became a major hub of the transatlantic slave trade, and its economy was dominated by plantation owners and British merchants.
- 6. Independence and Beyond • Jamaica gained its independence from Britain in 1962. Since then, it has faced a number of social and economic challenges, including political instability, high crime rates, and poverty. However, Jamaica has also made significant cultural contributions to the world, particularly in the areas of music, sports, and cuisine.
