La Haban was founded by the Spanish Conquistador Diego Velázquez de Cuéllar on August 25, 1515 or 1514, on the southern coast of the island, near the present town of Surgidero.
La Habana was the sixth town founded by the Spaniards on the island of Cuba. The original name, at the time of its founding was: ciudad de San Cristóbal de la Habana. It is believed that the name of the new city was decided on local folklore. It is believed that the native locals at the time, had a powerful Chief named Habaguanex. It is believed that Habaguanexcontrolled the area around the new Spanish city. Habaguanexis mentioned by the Conquistador Diego Velasquez in his report to the king of Spain around the time of the foundation of the city in 1515.
Another possibility is that Habaguanex was the name of the chief's beautiful daughter and not his. Anyhow, La Habana derives from the native word Habaguanex.
