The Ciboney ( or ), or Siboney, were an Indigenous people of Cuba, the Tiburon Peninsula of Haiti, and possibly Jamaica. According to some scholars, including Julian Granberry and Gary Vescelius, the Ciboney were a Western Taíno group living in Cuba during the 15th and 16th centuries, who had a dialect and culture distinct from the Classic Taíno who began migrating from Hispaniola after 1450, though much of the Ciboney territory was under the control of the eastern chiefs.
