Italian explorer Amerigo Vespucci [March 9, 1454-February 22, 1512], Alonso de Ojeda [c. 1466-1515], and Spanish cartographer Juan de la Cosa [c. 1460 1509] may be said to be Aruba's founders. They're the first Europeans to be credited with discovering the Caribbean island. In August 1499, they came across Aruba while they were exploring nearby Venezuela
