Certain interest represents studying of a policy of Spain in relation to natives of Canary Islands after an archipelago gain. It as a whole differed from a policy in relation to Indians of America though had a number of features a little. Some bourgeois historians try to justify colonizer activity of Spain (as well as other European powers), being started up in reasonings on its historical cultural mission, on the positive process which has followed a gain that, in turn, generates a deceit of history of indigenous population of Canary Islands after the beginning of the European colonisation.
Restoration after a forty-year break of the Soviet-Spanish relations and their activization last decade was strengthened by interest of the Soviet public to the events occurring in Spain, and also to history and ethnography of its people. Among them in our country Basques and natives of Canary Islands, more often and incorrectly called guanchi use special popularity, perhaps.
