Although this may be a valid ex- planation for the suffering of those La- tino who are also Mexican, it is not so relevant to the suffering of those Latino who are also Cuban. It is generally re- ported2-4 that the Indians who in- habited Cuba when the Spanish first ar- rived there became extinct very rapidly thereafter. These Indians disappeared so fast that it is probably safe to assume that now the proportion of Cubans who are Indian descended is minuscule. Cu- bans are not, however, without influ- ence from those Indians: for instance, Maso states that Cubans have received an important part of their eating habits from the Cuban Indians.4
