According to oral history, in 1506 the village of San Germán was settled near the Guaorabo River, though some historians place the settlement in Guanica in 1510-1512. In 1514 the island was divided into two parts, Puerto Rico and San Germán. By 1528 the village was located on the site of San Francisco, and it was attacked by Caribs during 1528-1538, 1554-1567, and 1569-1576.
