- Summary:
- Contemporary Cubans are descendents of Native Americans (Ciboney and Arawak), Spanish conquerors and administrators, and African slaves. Until the end of the 19th century Cuba was a Spanish colony. Cuba had economic and political ties to the United States until the socialist revolution in 1959. This file contains one document, a cultural summary that was published in the Encyclopedia of World Cultures in 1995. It covers the time period from 1100 to 1994 and includes information on Cuban history, settlement patterns, economy, kinship, marriage, family, sociopolitical organization, and religion.
