Columbus rediscovered Trinidad on Tuesday 31st of July 1498 on his third voyage from Seville. He was forced to take a more southerly route to avoid a hostile French Fleet and this led him into the doldrums. While drifting in the still heat of the equator his water barrels burst and his food rotted. It was in this situation that Columbus sighted the Trinity Hills or the Three Sisters on the southern coast of Trinidad. To Columbus it must have seemed providential as he was down to his last casket of water. There were already the Carib and Arawaks who inhabited the island at the time of his arrival.
