Abstract: Much scholarship has focused on the indigenous cultures the Spaniards encountered upon arriving in Cuba in the late fifteenth century, including some characteristics of the population, but only limited efforts have been devoted to exploring the dynamics underlying their demographic evolution, such as reproductive behavior or disease profiles determining mortality patterns. This is not surprising given limitations of the archaeological record and paucity of statistical sources. This article reviews the existing evidence from a narrow demographic perspective while offering observations regarding how demographic variables may have shaped the pre-1492 indigenous population.
