The architecture of Aruba is a testament to the diversity of Aruba itself. An eclectic mix of Spanish Mediterranean, and Dutch influence can be seen at every turn. This combination only adds to the distinctive flare that is Aruba. Red brick shingles and detailed curving gables look over our visitors as they take their steps through our historical streets. The pastel colored facacdes remind our visitors that this is a place to relax and enjoy the whimsical atmosphere of our yearly 365 day celebrations of being Aruba.
Old world style detail follows our visitors around Aruba. Whether it is our buildings in a busy market sqaure to our churches and fountains. Maybe it's the Dutch tradition of hospitality, maybe it's the long and prosperous history of the island, maybe it's the year-round warmth of the sunshine and the fresh breezes of the trade winds Aruba is a genuinely happy place to be. And the people who live here, in the cities, in the towns, in the countryside, are happy to be sharing it with you. The population of Aruba is as diverse as anywhere, tracing its ancestral roots back to over 40 different
ethnic backgrounds.

Aruba's first inhabitants were the Caquetios Indians from the Arawak tribe. Fragments of the earliest known Indian settlements date back to about 1000 A.D, as do the ancient painted symbols still visible on limestone caves found at Fontein, Ayo and elsewhere. Pottery remnants can still be seen at the Museum of Archaeology.
Some centuries later, the first European landed on Aruban shores. Spanish explorer Alonso de Ojeda is thought to have arrived about 1499. The Spanish promptly exported the Indians to Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic, where they were put to work in the copper mines.
In 1636, near the culmination of the Eighty Years' War between Spain and Holland, the Dutch took possession of Aruba and remained in control for nearly two centuries. In 1805, during the Napoleonic Wars, the English briefly took control over the island, but it was returned to Dutch control in 1816. Although Aruba continues to exist within the Kingdom of the Netherlands, it functions independently.

(CNN) The last people to see Natalee Holloway on the night she disappeared in Aruba were the white teenage son of a local judge and two middle-class young men of Surinamese descent, according to local police. Within days of when Holloway was last seen in the early hours of May 30, Aruban police arrested two black security guards who worked at a hotel near where she was staying. One question swirling around the investigation was whether police initially targeted the security guards who were released without charges eight days later as suspects at least in part because of their race or class. Views on that question depend on who is speaking and on what may be differing cultural frames of reference for people living in Aruba and in the United States.

  • Housewives often sweep the dirt yards to keep insects and reptiles out of the entrance to the house. Some believe that it necessary to enter and exit through the same doorway. If a guest stays too long, then they may stand a straw broom against an outside wall and the guest will seem to exit very quickly. Another important doorway tradition is to suspend a red ribbon over a doorway to protect the house from evil spirits.

Aruba - Culture The westernmost of the Caribbean islands, Aruba lies just 18 miles off the coast of Venezuela and 42 miles west of Curacao. The island covers an area of 70 square miles, 20 miles at its longest and 6 miles at its widest. Approximately 81,000 people reside here full time, and more than 540,000 visit during the course of a year. The southern, leeward side of the island is famous for its long stretches of powdery white sand beach, while the northern coast features a rugged and dramatic landscape and secluded coves ideal for swimming. Arubans are gymnastic linguists, many of them speaking four languages: Dutch, English, Spanish and Papiamento, sometimes in the same conversation. Papiamento is a melodious language derived from every culture that has impacted on the region, including traces of Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, French and local Indian languages. It's spoken throughout the Netherlands Antilles but is more Spanish-based on Aruba, an indication of the island's closer ties with the South American mainland. Making an effort to use a few Papiamento words will delight your Aruban hosts. Bon bini (welcome) is the first Papiamento you'll come across. Another word you'll hear is dushi, which means sweet or lovely; women will hear it more than men. The Arawak heritage is stronger on Aruba than on most Caribbean islands, though the indigenous language and culture did not last long into the 19th century. No full-blooded Indians remain, but the features of the islanders clearly indicate their genetic heritage. The majority of the population is descended from Arawak, Dutch and Spanish ancestors. Arawak petroglyphs can be seen in several parts of the island, including Fontein cave in the Arikok National Park, and an Indian village is still being excavated at Tanki Flip. Artefacts on view in Oranjestad's Archaeological Museum give clues to the customs of daily and ceremonial Arawak life: there are burial urns and a bone spatula thought to have been used as a vomiting stick to prepare men for ceremonies.
