notes:
Diego Gutierrez, governor of Costa Rica, with fellow Spaniards held native American leaders or caciques for ransom. He demanded that natives provide gold sufficient to fill a basket six times or else be burned. The natives did bring some gold ornaments of birds and animals, but the Spanish did not release their prisoners.This work was published by Theodor de Bry and is derived from the second part of Girolamo Benzoni, Historia del mondo nuovo, Venice, 1565. Theodor de Bry's America. Pt. 5. Latin. Imprint information from colophon.
