THE GREAT SEAL OF THE JATIBONICU TAINO TRIBAL NATION OF BORIKÉN

This is the Great Seal of the Jatibonicu Taino Tribal Nation of Borikén. The Great Sacred Seal was etched into rock around 900 BC. We the Jatibonicu people and its Tribal Chiefs and Elders historically have recognized this Great Seal as the official Guanin (Sacred Badge of Authority of the Chieftains) of the tribal blood lineage of Cacique Orocobix. Chief Orocobix was the last hereditary full blood Paramount Chief of the island kingdom of Jatibonicu. Presently the Guanin of the Great Seal is carried by our Cacique, Principal Chief Pedro Guanikeyu Torres. The sacred Guanin of the Great Seal of the Caney (Longhouse) of the Jatibonicu Taino Tribal Nation, has been in the possession of our Cacique for the past Thirty-Six (36) years of his adult life.

It should be noted that the Cacique's Guanin of The House of Orocobix, does not represent the image of the Sun. The etched symbols represent the twenty-four (24) Cohoba leaves encircling, one (1) outer Sun circle, one (1) inner Moon circle, the three (3) stem points of the Cohoba Snuff Pipe and the three (3) spiritual central cardinal points of the great Cemi, the totem of the sacred mountain of Cauta. Cauta is known as the great sacred Mountain of the two caves of Cacibajagua and Amayauona from which is said that all humankind had come from in the dawn of time.
The etched rock petroglyph of the Great Sacred Seal is located on the side of a mountain deep in a ceremonial cave within our tribal homeland. Our Taino tribal homeland is located in the central mountain region of the island of Borikén (The Great Land of the Valiente And Noble lord) today Puerto Rico.
