### A little history
The islands of Les Saintes or Les Saintes, in Guadeloupean Creole Lésent, are an archipelago of volcanic islets in the French West Indies in the Caribbean Sea. Divided between the communes of Terre-de-Haut and Terre-de-Bas, Les Saintes are administratively attached to Guadeloupe. Its inhabitants are called Saintois(es).
The smell of pancakes on the island quickly confirmed the Breton origin of these inhabitants. After numerous English invasions, always repelled, the first settlers arrived in the archipelago in the 1640's. They were Bretons, Normans, Vendeans and Alsatians.
