Urracá was a native Guaymi cacique (tribal chief) in Panama, who fought against the Spanish Conquistadors. Urraca was one of 3 Guaymi tribes in western Panama, each named after its chief. In 1522 Urraca forced a captain of the Spanish Empire, Diego de Albitez, to sign a peace treaty. However, Albitez's successor betrayed, and imprisoned Urraca.
Sent in chains to Nombre de Dios on the Atlantic coast, Urraca escaped and made his way back to the mountains, vowing to fight the Spaniards unto death. And he fulfilled his vow. In his last years, Urraca's name was so feared by the Spaniards that they avoided combat with his men. When Urraca died in 1531, surrounded by friends and relatives, he was still a free man.
