Museo Arqueologico de Betancuria

The Archaeological Museum of Betancuria houses various aboriginal archaeological fragments, most of which are examples of pottery but there are also bones and tools shaped from bone.

A very informative booklet is provided with the entrance fee that outlines what is known about Fuerteventura's native pre-European conquest people - the Majos.

The Cannons outside the museum were captured from attacking English Pirates, who were repelled by local Farmers at the Battle of Tiscamanita in 1740.
