At the Texas State Capital Building in Austin, members of the Taino tribe gathered to raise awareness about the 2010 US census. Dr. Ana Mara Tekina-eir Maynard led the group in song. Shes the tribes leader, who directs and teaches ceremonial dances to Tainos in the United States. She explains that the Tainos greeted Christopher Columbus when he landed in the New World in 1492, but the Spanish explorers who followed him killed the tribe in large numbers. Some Tainos managed to survive by fleeing to the mountains. But in the 1800s, Spain stopped counting native people in the census of its colonies. Today, most history books say the Tainos were wiped out 50 years after the Spanish explorers arrived. After hundreds of years of mainstream thought that taught them the Tainos were dead, many Puerto Ricans forgot about their native ancestors.
