Native Americans referred to San Salvador as "Guanahani," which is the name given to the island by the Taíno people who inhabited it before Christopher Columbus's arrival in 1492. The exact meaning of "Guanahani" is not definitively known, but it is often interpreted to mean "Island of the Cacique" or "Great Island." The name reflects the indigenous culture and heritage of the region prior to European colonization.
