- Description:
- India Catalina (c. 1495 – ?) was an indigenous woman (almost certainly Calamari) from the Colombian Atlantic coast, who accompanied Pedro de Heredia and played a role in the Spanish conquest of Colombia, acting as interpreter and intermediary.
The events of the Spanish conquest in the area of modern Cartagena ended with the complete annihilation of the Calamari people, which happened while she was enslaved and abducted by the Spaniards.
The name of Catalina India appeared in a letter sent for Pedro de Heredia to King Carlos V in 1533. No one knew what her real name was because they began calling her 'Catalina' from 1509 when the Diego de Nicuesa expedition kidnapped her.
The monument to India Catalina was sculpted by Eladio Gil Zambrana and presented to the public in 1974. - Buy Now:
