Indiera Alta is a barrio in the municipality of Maricao, Puerto Rico. Its 2010 population was 1,369.[2] [3] [4]
Indiera Alta is one of the three Spanish; Castilian: Indieras de Maricao, the other two being Indiera Baja and Indiera Fría. Difficult to access, this geographic area served as a refuge for Taínos fleeing Spanish and other European colonizers, who began colonizing Puerto Rico in the 15th century.[5]
Indiera Alta was in Spain's gazetteers[6] until Puerto Rico was ceded by Spain in the aftermath of the Spanish–American War under the terms of the Treaty of Paris of 1898 and became an unincorporated territory of the United States. In 1899, the United States Department of War conducted a census of Puerto Rico finding that the population of Indiera Alta barrio was 1,145.[7]
