Occupying a prime position at the main entrance of the UNESCO-listed Old Town Cartagena, La India Catalina Monument is a bronze rendering of the daughter of a local chief, who was abducted at age 14 from her home in Galerazamba. Once she’d learned Spanish, she had to accompany the Spanish conquistador Pedro de Heredia as an interpreter and pacifying presence in interactions between the Spanish and Indigenous groups.
