Скачать или смотреть Parish Profile: PORTLAND, The birthplace of Jamaican tourism.

The parish of Portland, in Jamaica offers a fascinating example of how colonial narratives often overshadow the deeper, pre-colonial history of places. Officially, Portland is said to have been named after the Duke of Portland, a title associated with the British nobility. This was a common colonial practice, as British rulers frequently named regions and parishes after aristocrats to assert control and leave a lasting mark of imperial influence on the landscape. However, historical evidence suggests that Portland might have had an identity long before the British formally named it.
