In the past, Columbus "exported" a small number of Lucayans to Spain when he returned to his country. What happened to them is not known. What is known, is that his voyage was the first of a building invasion of the New World by the Spanish. Because there was no gold to be found in the islands, many voyagers simply continued to the west, where they found other natives and riches beyond their dreams.

Ni is the descendant of those Lucayans.
