Last week, Eleni and Kathrin got to go on a very special trip filled with great encounters and experiences.
We were welcomed by our collaborators at the National Trust of Trinidad and Tobago and brought our results, summarized in the English Trinidad version of our coloring book.
We (with @gatag.bsky.social) are happy to share our discussion, where we explore three cases of matrilocality and genetic matriline connections identified with ancient DNA.

In our chapter, we review articles published on Caribbean bioarchaeology over the last decade to find which regions are studied more, whether studies are carried out by local or foreign institutions, whether destructive methods are used and whether collaboration with local communities is mentioned.
