Before being discovered and conquered by the Spanish, the inhabitants were the Mayans, as the area constituting Honduras as well as Belize and Guatemala, etc were ruled by the Mayan Empire. The Mayans can be considered a Native American Civilization, like the Aztecs of Mexico. For the most part the Mayans interbred with their conquerors and much like most Latin Americans represent a blending of mixed ancestry, making them Hispanic. So, it depends how you look at it. Either the natives are (Latino/Hispanic) Hondurans or the Natives are the Mayans.
