PRESIDENT OF INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR CARIBBEAN ARCHAEOLOGY EXPRESSES CONCERN AT BAHAMAS REDEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS
Dr Jay Haviser, President of the International Association for Caribbean Archaeology, writing to the Rt. Hon. Hubert Ingraham, Prime Minister of the Bahamas, today (2 March 2000) said: “As President of the International Association for Caribbean Archaeology, I should like to express my concern at the building development proposed for the sensitive heritage site of Clifton Cay, New Providence Island in the Bahamas. Archaeological assessment of the Clifton Cay site has revealed that it uniquely encompasses aspects of Bahamian settlement from the Lucayan (pre-Columbian) period through to the twentieth century. No other Bahamian site includes all of these components. As planned, the multi-million dollar gated development proposed for this unique area will destroy the archaeology of up to three Lucayan village sites recently discovered beneath the foundations of several historic African wattle and plaster structures, as well as rare survivals of the early eighteenth century pre-plantation period. In addition, by re-routing the traditional plantation roads several miles inland, public access to important historic areas of the site, such as the main early nineteenth century plantation house, the oldest verified slave church and the best preserved examples of slave houses and associated “yards” in the country, will be limited. Acknowledged by archaeologists as a site of potential world heritage status, I feel development at Clifton Cay, New Providence Island, Bahamas, should be delayed until the full impact of the 1999 archaeological assessment report can be evaluated and the potential damage to irreplaceable archaeology in an area of outstanding natural beauty given full consideration.” For more information, please contact:
