The ruins of New Cadiz, one of the first New World trade depots colonized 500 years ago by Spanish explorers for its vast wealth of pearls is now virtually uninhabited as seen on February 19, 2009 in Cubagua Island, Venezuela. Archaeologists are critical of the Venezuelan government for failing to better preserve the ruins and are frustrated with the limited access the government is permitting them with to continue their research.
