| India Catalina was the first indigenous translator for the Spaniards. Her statues are placed around the old city. She lived from 1495 until 1538. She is the daughter of an indigenous tribal chief and she was kidnapped by the Spaniards. When movie awards are handed out in Colombia, they use her statue instead of the Oscar. |
