The 17th-century French monk Gabriel Foigny, wrote that this place was entirely populated by hermaphrodites. By contrast, in 1668 Henry Neville wrote that an English sailor named William Pine had been shipwrecked off the coast of this place with four women, and his descendents had founded a colony whose chief pastime was gambling.
