Anthropological Investigation at Tibes

We decided to hit up Tibes, the Taino Ceremonial Site near Ponce for a side trip. As I said I'm a self- proclaimed -researcher/musicologist and have turned my attention to the Taino roots of Puerto Rico. Conversations and studies about the Taino legacy always seem to lead to controversy based on anthropological assumptions, lived experiences, oral stories and urban myths. I have been told that Tainos:
no longer exist as they were  genocided by guns, germs and steel,

they're hiding in the Yunque,
most Puerto Ricans have Taino blood,
the Jibaros in New York are Taino descendants,
some one's grandma was Taina,
etc.

I decided to hit up Tibes to see for myself what was going on and throw my two cents into the mix. While it is popularly believed and well studied that the Tainos originally hail from the Orinco River Delta of Venezuela, the artifacts in the museum led me to my own conclusion that Tainos may be descendants of the Maya. Why? They played the same ball game, proximity to major Mayan centers in the Yucatan , and how they pressed the babies foreheads much like the Maya. How can I prove my conclusion? No, I don't have bones or pottery chips or the equipment to run a half-life test, it just seems right to me. And that's the beauty of being a self-proclaimed anthropologist.

P.S. While the museum was open and we were able to see a short documentary about the ceremonial site, we were not actually able to see the actual site due to some issues about bees and safety.
