Before the arrival of the Spanish conquistadores, Costa Rica – like other countries in Central and South America – was entirely populated by indigenous tribes. Prior to 1502, between 400,000 and 500,000 native people lived in Costa Rica in distinct cultural groups, spread out throughout the country.
