A Little Turks Island History

 

In the 1700s and 1800s

Turks and Caicos produced salt.

There were slaves that worked in the salt pans. Their jobs were to rake the salt into huge heaps so they were known as salt rakers.

 

After working hard in the sun, they developed white rings on their skin in the corner of their arms and around their necks. This was due to dried salty sweats. It later birth the locally known term “Rakin Salt”

 

“Man you work so hard till you Rakin Salt”
