Christopher Columbus
claimed discovery in 1493. The island became a British colony in 1650, and was governed as
part of Saint Kitts, Nevis, Anguilla, from the early 18th Century.
Anguilla became a separate dependency with internal
self-government following British intervention to quell two years of rebellion; formalized
with the Anguilla Act of 1980.
Pre Columbian:
The little Italian seaman, who felt like a Spaniard, didn't really discover this island at
all. Archaeological research helps to uncover the facts.
