| 释义 |
Scottish Jamaicans are Jamaicans of Scottish descent. Scottish Jamaicans include those of European and mixed African and Asian ancestry with Scottish ancestors and date back to the earliest period of post-Spanish, European colonisation. An early influx of Scots came in 1656, when 1200 prisoners of war were deported by Oliver Cromwell.[1] There was also a later migration at the turn of the 18th century, after the failed Darien colony in Panama.[1] In 1707, when the Act of Union took place, Scots gained access to England's preexisting colonies.
