Lifa In Cuba

• Prehistory
Cuba was inhabited by American Indian people known as the Taíno, also called Arawak by the Spanish, and Guanajatabey and Ciboney people before the arrival of the Spanish. The ancestors of these Native Americans migrated from the mainland of North, Central and South America several centuries earlier. The native Taíno called the island Caobana (correct spelling is "Coabana", which is spelled wrong on the referenced site.) The Taíno were farmers, while the Ciboney were farmers as well as fishers and hunter-gatherers.
• Spanish colonization and rule (1492–1898)
After first landing on an island then called Guanahani, Bahamas on October 12, 1492, Christopher Columbus commanded his three ships: La Pinta, La Niña and the Santa María, to land on Cuba's northeastern coast on October 28, 1492. (This was near what is now Bariay, Holguin province.) Columbus claimed the island for the new Kingdom of Spain and named it Isla Juana after Juan, Prince of Asturias.
