'Cocoa in full bearing', Trinidad and Tobago, c1914. Indo-Trinidadian man and small boy, the man has a machete for cutting down the cocoa pods. Between 1845 and 1917, during the British colonial period, poor Indians arrived in Trinidad and were given jobs either as indentured labourers, workers or educated servicemen. Known as Indo-Trinidadians and Tobagonians or Indian Trinidadians, they became nationals of Trinidad and Tobago. Cacao, or cocoa, has contributed to the socio-economic development of Trinidad and Tobago for over 200 years, ever since the Spanish first planted the Criollo variety in 1525. [Muir, Marshall & Co]
