The aboriginal kingdoms of Tenerife, known as menceyatos, were nine distinct territories ruled by indigenous leaders called menceyes before the Spanish conquest in the 15th century. These menceyatos were the regions of Taoro, Tegueste, Tacoronte, Anaga, Güímar, Abona, Adeje, Icod, and Daute. Each menceyato had its own social structure, economy, and culture, with agriculture, livestock, and fishing being the main activities. The Guanches, the indigenous people of Tenerife, practiced a polytheistic religion and lived in cave dwellings, showing a rich culture that blended communal and hierarchical elements.
