Trants
One of the largest and earliest Saladoid villages in the Lesser Antilles, settled on Montserrat's windward coast around 500 BCE and an important centre of lapidary bead production - until it was buried by a pyroclastic flow from the Soufrière Hills volcano in 2010, ending centuries of excavation at the site.
