I would expect "island hopping" to be the perfect thing for Exploration.I firmly believe that if the devs choose to represent the Caribbean, they add the Taino and have it be in Antiquity. This is really pushing the boundaries of Antiquity, but Exploration is already teeming with island hopping civs. We don’t need another one. A Taino > Spain > Cuba/Mexico/America/Whatever line is still pretty historically.
Also they should choose the Taino because they’re the indigenous group with the most cultural impact in modern Caribbean countries. (And also because I’m biased and want the closet we can get to a Puerto Rican civ in the game)
I like the idea of Arawak>Taino>Haiti for the Caribbean, with the Arawak branching into a South America path too.
