:''See Fernandeño for the unrelated group of Southern California.'' Fernandinos are creoles, multi-ethnic or multi-racial populations who developed in Equatorial Guinea and former Spanish Guinea. Their name is derived from the island of Fernando Po, where many worked. It was named for the Portuguese explorer Fernão do Pó, credited with discovering this region. Each population had a distinct ethnic, social, cultural and linguistic history. Members of these communities provided most of the labor that built and expanded the cocoa farming industry on Fernando Po during the 1880s and 1890s.〔(G. Clarence-Smith, "African and European Cocoa Producers on Fernando Póo, 1880s to 1910s," ''The Journal of African History,'' Volume 35, Issue 02, Jul 1994, pp 179–199, , Published online by Cambridge University Press 22 Jan 2009 )〕 The Fernandinos of Fernando Po were closely related to each other. Because of the history of labor in this area, where workers were recruited (and effectively impressed) from Freetown, Cape Coast, and Lagos, the Fernandinos also had family ties to those areas.〔I. K. Sundiata, ''From Slaving to Neoslavery: The Bight of Biafra and Fernando Po in the Era of Abolition, 1827–1930; Univ of Wisconsin Press, 1996; ISBN 0-299-14510-7, ISBN 978-0-299-14510-1; p.152〕 Eventually these ethnically distinct groups intermarried and integrated. In 21st-century Bioko, their differences are considered marginal. == Native Fernandinos == The indigenous group of Fernandinos or ''Los Fernandinos'', were mixed-race descendants of the indigenous population of Spanish Guinea originating from the island of Fernando Pó (modern day Bioko Island), an island discovered by Fernão do Pó. This group consisted of mulattoes of female Bubi and white male Spaniard parentage, and were part of the Emancipados social class. Many children from such unions were not claimed by the father; however, some couples married under Roman Catholic law. Because the Bubi women generally were responsible for rearing and caring for their mixed-race children, they identified with and were generally accepted in the Bubi tribe. Similarly, the Portuguese-Indigenous descended mulatto population of São Tomé and Príncipe, an island also discovered by explorer Fernão do Pó, were also referred to as Fernandinos at one point. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fernandino peoples」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
