Confirmed: Islands Etched by Storm and Stone: The Geological Forces That Built the Caribbean
Podcast:History of the Caribbeans | Exploring Resilience and Culture Published On: Mon Dec 22 2025 Description: This three-chapter documentary examines the Caribbean not as a tropical backdrop, but as a landscape forged under extreme geological pressure. Beginning beneath the sea, it traces how tectonic collisions and volcanic eruptions built unstable islands that rose, collapsed, and rose again. It then follows the slower forces of water, coral growth, erosion, and storms as they reshaped raw rock into land capable of sustaining life. The series concludes by showing how these ancient physical limits shaped human settlement, movement, and survival long before culture or history took form. The Caribbean emerges as a region defined first by stone and water, where endurance was never optional.
