History of Curaco Part I Caiquetios Indians were resident on Curaçao in 1498 when Spaniard Alonso de Ojeda barged in. The Caiquetios didn't last long. Slave-hunting raids devastated the population, and those Indians who escaped transportation to Hispaniola were felled by disease and murder. When deportation stopped in 1526, there were only 400 Indians left on Curaçao. The Spaniards soon shipped back out, put off by the lack of fresh water and valuable minerals.
