Although not historically proven, it has been told that the Lucayan Indians were the original inhabitants of the islands and resided in these caves.
Later in time, it has been suggested that Pirates and thrir bounty found refuge from the law by also hiding in these caves.
Today, the caves are occupied by the 'Buffy Flower Bat' (Brophylia Sezekomi) commonly known as the fruit bat, and indigenous to the Bahama Islands.
