The Lucayans, indigenous people of the Bahamas, faced threats primarily from European colonizers, particularly the Spanish, who arrived in the late 15th century.

Additionally, other European powers and rival indigenous groups posed potential threats to their way of life and territory. Ultimately, the combination of these forces led to the rapid decline of the Lucayan population.
