HISTORY OF GRAND CAYMAN
Pre-Colonial and Discovery
Pre-Columbian Era: There's no evidence of indigenous people living on Grand Cayman, though neighboring islands in the Caribbean were inhabited by the Taíno and Carib peoples.
1503: Grand Cayman was first sighted by Christopher Columbus during his fourth voyage. He named the islands "Las Tortugas" because of the numerous sea turtles found there.
Colonial Era
17th Century: The islands were later renamed "Caymanas", derived from the Carib word for crocodile. They appeared on maps but remained largely uninhabited.
1655: After the British captured Jamaica from the Spanish, the Cayman Islands came under British control.
18th Century: The first permanent settlers were British, including deserters from Oliver Cromwell’s army in Jamaica and former pirates. Slaves were brought in to work plantations and in shipbuilding.
1794 – Wreck of the Ten Sail: A famous shipwreck occurred when ten British ships ran aground off Grand Cayman’s East End. Local legend says islanders rescued all the crew, and in gratitude, King George III granted them tax exemption—a story with little evidence but great local significance.
19th Century
The economy revolved around turtle fishing, shipbuilding, and rope making.
Slavery was abolished in the British Empire in 1834, freeing over 900 enslaved people on the island.
