Event	(Public) Garifuna Settlement Day (by Marty) The Garifuna (pronounced Ga-RIF-una), or Black Caribs, are a unique cultural and ethnic group. They first appeared in this area over 300 years ago, when escaped and shipwrecked slaves mixed with the native Caribs who had given them refuge on Saint Vincent Island. In the entire country of Belize (mainly in the southern most areas of the country) November 19th is a yearly celebration to commemorate the arrival and the settlement of the first Garinagus (Black Caribs) to the southern districts of Belize in 1832. Belizeans from all over g ather in the southern districts of Dangriga and Toledo to celebrate with the garinagus.
