 Remnants of these communities remain to this day (2006) for example in Viñales, Cuba, and Adjuntas, Puerto Rico.Maroon communities emerged in many places in the Caribbean (St Vincent and Dominica, for example), but none were seen as such a great threat to the British as the Jamaican Maroons.A British governor signed a treaty in 1739 and 1740 promising them in two locations, to bring an end to the warfare between the communities.
