Did You Know: Batea are oval or circular
wooden trays used traditionally by Taino to carry food, wash clothes, or pan
for gold. Today, Taino and others in Kiskeia (Dominican Republic) continue to make
and use them for these same purposes, still calling them batea, which is
its Taino name. Batea is pronounced "bah-teh-ah." - UCTP Taino News (c) 2013
