Taino
The Taino peoples are not a race, but a avanced cultural expression of regional natives. They were not extinct as commonly believed, but they were asimilated to the spanish dominant colonial culture, changing its names to christians, taking spanish costumes over them, and mixing racially, today the taino culture live mixed with spanish uses, as one can see it in the rural countrymen uses, the topographic names and herbalistic.
Taino and spanish are one of the foundaments of Dominican People culture, the other is the better known as of african infludence, through the sincretist religious music and dances.

Mayowakan
Mayowakan or Mayohuacan is the taino name for the Sacred Drum of The Taino People from Kiskeya (also Quisqueya, or perhaps Ixkeya), better known as La Hispaniola island. No mayowakan has been ever found, but it existed as says tradition.
The mayowakan sounds here are insteed a fantasy or my own interpretation about it because from s.XV nobody ever has listen a mayowakan.
The melodies listened here are a musical fantasy, pretending to resemble the tunes, war dances and festives dances including poetry, known as "Areito" in Taino language.
As soon as in Kiskeya inhabited diverse peoples at same time, like Ciguayo, Macorix and Taino, I made the songs resembling the character of each people, the braveness and warriorship of Ciguayos and Macorixes
and the kindness and peacefullnes of Tainos.
