Dauphin was a Quarter on the Caribbean island nation of Saint Lucia. The district was merged with Gros-Islet in 2014. It contains a village of the same name, located at 14°02′N 60°54′W / 14.033°N 60.900°W / 14.033; -60.900. It was home to Amerindians, the Island Caribs, who settled there. To this day, there are ruins which serve as a reminder of people who lived there long before Christopher Columbus crossed the Atlantic from Europe.[1][2][3]
