History. Upon reaching Panama, the Spaniards enslaved  natives. Then, in the 18th century, the landowners bought slaves. There was slavery in Anton and in the Region of Llanos del Chirú (modern Coronado), where the first colonial estates were established. Coronado is part of the first structured agrarian culture that began to stand out in the 18th century. It was an area of savannas, vast prairies that descend to the Pacific Ocean and after its exploitation, became the area of the first legal possession of the land, since, before this time, there were no titled lands. Between 1691 and 1693 three large estates were created to shape the  structure of the real estate register. This route was used by pirates, smugglers, fugitives and road thieves among others that pillaged towns, set up ambushes and favored the opening of the closed Hispanic trade route on the Coasts of the South Pacific, where Coronado had a singular position during colonial times. The modern city was founded in 1941 by Robert Eisenmann and has continued to grow since. Culture. The cultural wealth that Coronado has inherited is unique to the region called Llanos del Chirú, that belonged in ancient times to the area of Nata (The granary of America). It is  this relationship which to discover the unique cultural variety that exists in Chame and Coronado, towns which used to be part of Los Llanos del Chirú, later called Finca La Yeguala.
