BTW: Did any of you know who Guarocuya was?
Guarocuya or better known as Cacique Enriquillo, was the nephew of Queen Anacaona who was married to Cacique Caonabo...
Guarocuya got the name of Enrique when he was baptized a Catholic.
Since colonists always treated the Tainos as lesser people, it was common to use Enriquillo (as it meant to call a child or younger adult).
That's where that name comes from!
