RE: February 1st - my 1st post! Makes sense, doesn't it? Introducing myself to the world!
Was your city founded in the 1600's or before that? Pretty old city.
Love the music stuff.

Hello there! It was actually founded in the 1500's. Pretty pretty old, ya. Thank you for your comment!
It was founded in 1515, for the record.
Wow, 1515 is pretty old. That was 23 years after 1492 and Christopher Columbus. I've heard there have been different kinds of Indians in the Americas for centuries and also some black and white visitors from time to time dating before the 1500's. Would you consider an Indian tribe the same as a city?
The thing is that for purposes of the city it was founded three times because settlements were destroyed by Indian tribes over and over again. It was called Nueva Cadiz and also Nueva Toledo (I don't remember the specific order), but the thing is that it was for sure the first settlement in the American mainland.
