The T.A.I.N.O. SEAL
The official seal of T.A.I.N.O. is an organizational emblem, not a governmentalor sovereign seal. It represents our collective responsibility to protect Taino history, honor ancestral resilience, and advance national unity.

This Seal is the organization's Seal and does not represent any existing official Great Seal of the Taino.
The Taino American Indigenous National Organization seal uses the tribal name "Taino" as an acronym "T.A.I.N.O." The T.A.I.N.O. seal uses design elements to symbolize protection, remembrance, and cultural continuity. These are organizational symbols meant to honor Taíno heritage and the broader Arawak world, and they do not represent governmental authority, enrollment status, or exclusive identity claims. Along the lower section of the seal, each symbol represents other essential elements that the Taino valued and believed in. The far left symbol is "Trigonolito," the God of Fertility. The "Guey" is the Taino symbol for the sun; we believe the Guey is the source of all creation and life. It is typically also known to mean "Good Luck" or "Strength". In the lower center is the "Atabey," believed to be the supreme Goddess with several meanings, all equally important to Taino Life. It means earth, fresh water, and life. She stands at the center of all—Taino existence. The spiral-like symbol, sometimes known as "Triskele," means balance.
Taino believes that balance must exist and be practiced throughout life.
The kissing bird "Kranes" means eternal love. , and family. Because of this love and realization of a family structure, everything grown or killed for survival belonged to the entire tribe. At the center of it all is the Great Seal's iteration. (See Official Seal explanation on the About Us page). By incorporating these symbols into our organizational seal, we believe the organization is protected and will flourish to honor and keep our people from being forgotten, dismissed, or minimized. We exist, we matter, and we have value.
WE ARE STILL HERE!
