The first people to inhabit the island were a nation of Arawak Indians called the Caiquetios who migrated north from the Orinoco Basin in South America and settled here approximately 2,000 years ago. Re mnants of their culture can still be found at a number of different sites around the island: pottery, earthenware, and other artefacts at the Archeological Museum in Oranjestad and at the Historical Museum of Aruba at Fort Zoutman and William III Tower; and cave drawings and petroglyphs in the Fontein and Guadiriki Caves and at Arikok National Park In 1499, the Spanish explorer Alonso de Ojeda made his way to this remote corner of the Caribbean Basin and laid claim to the territory for Queen Isabella. According to one tradition, he christened the place Oro Hubo meaning there was gold there, but the name Aruba seems to have derived instead from the Arawak Indian word oibubai which means guide. In any event, the Spanish made little use of the island, finding the climate too arid for cultivation and discovering little evidence of the gold they were eagerly searching for. For the most part, they abandoned Aruba to the Caiquetios for the next 150 years and devoted themselves to other more lucrative conquests. Before long, however, the island became a clandestine hide-away for pirates and buccaneers who preyed on ships transporting Indian treasures back to the Old World. At

http://www.arubabeachvillas.com/culture/
The architecture of Aruba is a testament to the diversity of Aruba itself. An eclectic mix of Spanish Mediterranean, and Dutch influence can be seen at every turn. This combination only adds to the distinctive flare that is Aruba. Red brick shingles and detailed curving gables look over our visitors as they take their steps through our historical streets. The pastel colored facacdes remind our visitors that this is a place to relax and enjoy the whimsical atmosphere of our yearly 365 day celebrations of being Aruba.
Old world style detail follows our visitors around Aruba. Whether it is our buildings in a busy market sqaure to our churches and fountains. Maybe it's the Dutch tradition of hospitality, maybe it's the long and prosperous history of the island, maybe it's the year-round warmth of the sunshine and the fresh breezes of the trade winds Aruba is a genuinely happy place to be. And the people who live here, in the cities, in the towns, in the countryside, are happy to be sharing it with you. The population of Aruba is as diverse as anywhere, tracing its ancestral roots back to over 40 different
ethnic backgrounds.

History
Poor soil and aridity saved the island from plantation economics and the slave trade. Instead the Dutch left the Arawaks to graze livestock on the parched landscape, using the island as a source of meat for other Dutch possessions in the Caribbean. The British arrived in 1805 during the Napoleonic Wars but sailed into the sunset in 1816. Less than a decade later, the first of Aruba's three economic booms took place when gold was discovered near Balashi. A flood of gold-hungry immigrants arrived from Europe and Venezuela, and mining continued right up until 1916. The new level of independence came close on the heels of a severe economic downturn, prompted largely by the closure of Aruba's oil refinery. Having exhausted the real gold and refined the black gold, the Arubians turned to tourism to bankroll their future. Investment in the island's tourist infrastructure has been little short of phenomenal, and Aruba now boasts over 6000 hotel rooms and over three quarters of a million visitors each year. The refinery reopened in 1991, but tourism is now very much the mainstay of the island's economy. Despite the economic autonomy enabled by the tourist boom, plans for full independence in 1996 were shelved. The Dutch maintain responsibility for the island's foreign affairs and defense and continue to support Aruba's economy.
