Doigs (Indigenous site)

Doigs is a Ceramic period site in Saint Mary, Antigua and Barbuda. It is about 4 kilometres from the nearest major town, Old Road.[1] The site is near Ding-a-Dong-Nook, the site of a conflict between indigenous people and early British settlers that resulted in the deaths of much of a governor's family. There was activity at the site around 250 AD. Shell tools, beads, and ceramics have been found at the site.[2][3]
