I gave this presentation on the theme of migration on 25 September, 2024, as part of the observances of Amerindian Heritage Month in Guyana. The webinar was sponsored jointly by the University of Guyana's Amerindian Research Unit and the International Centre for Migration and Diaspora Studies.
The basic argument is that dugout canoes were instrumental not only in the movement of the first people into Guyana, but also to their ability to settle and thrive there, and that canoes remained central to migrations throughout prehistory and the historic period.
I am providing the presentation as a PDF. You can read it in your browser's PDF extension or download it. If you download it and see only the slides after opening in Acrobat, click the "Review Comments" button in the upper right corner to see the full script.
