Isla Mujeres in english means "Island of Woman" and derives from the time when the Spaniards discovered and conquered cities and regions in the southern part of Mexico. Due to the fact that they could not understand the Maya language, they renamed most. This is why today almost no Mayan names are in existence on the Yucatan peninsula. " During Lent of 1517 Francisco Hernandez de Cordoba sailed from Cuba with three ships to procure slaves for the mines...(others say that he sailed to discover new lands for the crown). He landed on the southern part of the island and found a Mayan stone temple (the remains can still be seen today) and figurines of woman. The idols were of the goddess of the country Ixchel and her daughters and daughter in law Ixbeliax, Ixhunie and Ixhunieta. They were only vestured from the girdle on down and having the breasts uncovered after the manner of the indians. Cordoba used his right, bestowed upon him by the King of Spain and christened the Island accordingly "Isla de la Mujeres"
