1 Talamanca are more native to Costa Rica
 
2. Siboney or ciboney (' cave dweller s' in classical Taino, Caribbean Indigenous Arawak language) was a town that was among the Aboriginal occupants of the Caribbean Sea West Indies. When the Spaniards arrived in America, the Siboney occupied territories in Western Cuba and in the western part of The Spanish (currently corresponding to Haiti). The siboney of the times of European conquest are also called Tainos-siboney and rents of the oldest siboneyes.
 
3 Tequesta (also Tekesta, Tegesta, Chequesta, Vizcaynos) were a native American tribe. At the time of European first contact, they occupied an area along Florida's southeast Atlantic coast.
 
4 The Taínos were the pre-Columbian inhabitants of the Bahamas, the Older West Indies and the north of the Lesser West Indies. It is a people that arrived from South America, specifically from the mouth of the Orinoco River, Venezuela passing from island to island, reducing or assimilating the oldest settlers,[1] [2] as the guanajatabeyes and the ciguayans whose cultures predate the arrival of the Taínos. The Taina language belongs to the macroarahuacana linguistic family, which stretches from South America across the Caribbean.
 
5 The Boruca (also known as Brunca, Brunka or Brunkajc) are a Central American indigenous people native to Costa Rica. The tribe has approximately 2000 members, most of whom live in a territory in the province of Puntarenas south-east of the country. The ancestors of modern Boruca formed a group of villages that ruled most of the Osa Peninsula.
 
6. The Lokono or Arawak are an Arawak people originating in the coastal areas of North South America. Today, approximately 10,000 Lokono live mostly along the coasts and rivers of Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, Barbados and French Guyana. They speak the Arahuaco language, the eponymous language of the Arahuaca language family, as well as several Creole and English languages.
 
6 The Chorotegas are an ethnic group from Honduras, Nicaragua and Costa Rica that has about 790 members.
 
7. The Caribbean or Caribbean Culture were a people originating in America whose original core was in the Caribbean region and the North American coast. They lived in separate villages in the islands of Granada, Trinidad and Tobago, Dominica and St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Good navigators and skilled ship builders, they spoke the Caribbean language. They had a dominant position in the Caribbean basin because of their dominance of war.

Several Indigenous groups originating from the mainland continent discovered and settled on the Caribbean Island in different time periods.  There are 7,000 plus island and every group had their own set of islands to thrive on.  The only one from U.S.A. that settled on these islands were the Colusa tribe, Florida.

It's your homeland, you and several should be able to visit and stay with your indigenous ancestors in Florida.

Among the better known of these Taino peoples of Florida are the Tekesta, associated with the Maimi Circle, the state-level Calusa society based on a fishing economy in Southern Florida, and the Timucua tribe of Northern Florida.

Tekesta people have not inhabited Florida for some centuries, they were relocated to Cuba.

I heard the indigenous people are more connected with God, than regular civilized people like us.

Maybe because indigenous people are living the same way that their ancestors have lived before them.  If modern people had to live similar to anything that resembles their ancestors then we would be more connected with Religion and God.

@prau123 That is so true, its a crazy thought when in Christianity, they believe that even the poorest of the poor have a better chance of going to Heaven. Same how the indigenous people are living.

well part of the reason why the indigenous people are considered poor is because the colonist took away their land, severely depopulated their population, diminished their culture, religion and language and plus more.
