The Amerindians, primarily the Taíno and Carib tribes, practiced animism, a belief system that emphasizes the spiritual essence of nature and the reverence of ancestors and natural elements. They worshipped various deities associated with agriculture, fertility, and the sea, reflecting their deep connection to the land and environment.
