Good info!bluefete wrote:There was a Catholic Church that was destroyed to make way for the dam. It is said that the Catholic priest was so livid that he placed a curse on the project and the dam was never built.
Caura is an adaptation of the Arawak word, Cuara. It's actually a sad story. This was once a settlement for Arawaks, until the authorities bought the lands and had the population moved, and all the buildings in the village demolished. By 1946 the village was gone, all to build a dam which was supposed to supply the entire North Trinidad with water. However, a year into the project it was abandoned amidst escalating cost, and much scandal.
