La Mujer de Caguana (Woman of Caguana) is a preColumbian Taíno petroglyph located at the Caguana Indigenous Ceremonial Park in Utuado, Puerto Rico. While there are diverse interpretations of the symbol’s meaning, many Taíno today view it as an anthropomorphic representation of Atabey (Mother Earth consciousness). This symbol of Atabey is becoming increasingly visible and adapted by Caribbean island people, inspiring diverse creative expressions from contemporary art to tattoos. Photo by Christina M. González.
