Abstract
The purpose of this article is to study the role of Canarian peasants in the formation of the Spanish colonial Caribbean through the analysis of their bibliography and documentation of all kinds, including sacramental books. The colonial Spanish Caribbean cannot be appreciated without acknowledging the presence of a large colony of Canarian peasants who were fundamental to the establishment of towns and their agricultural and livestock colonization. However, a historiography full of ideological prejudices, obsessed with characterizing the Caribbean as a sugar slave plantation, in which both native dogmatic Marxists and some North Americans political theorists agree, has ignored their contribution by straying from this basic fact.
