| The name Haiti comes from the Tai'no word Ayti', which means "Mountainous
Land" and referred to the entire island later called Hispaniola.
The French staked their claim on the entire island based on settlement
of Tortuga and Gona^ve islands by French pirates in the 16th century.
France officially incorporated the colony in the early 1600s. In
1697, with the signing of the Treaty of Ryswick with Spain, the French
took the western third of the island, naming their colony Saint-Domingue. |
