| How the Seychelles, a chain of some of the most beautiful islands in the world, came to be in the middle of the western Indian Ocean, remains a mystery to this day.
There is little difficulty in accounting for the origin of the 50 coral islands in the group, but the remaining 42 granitic islands, rising majestically from a shallow continental shelf have confounded explanation since they are neither coralline nor volcanic as all true oceanic islands are.
Various theories have been proposed to unravel this apparent quirk of nature. One of the more plausible explanation maintains that the Seychelles are residual mountain peaks left behind as the continents of Asia and Africa drifted apart. Another holds that the islands are the remnants of a continent which has long since subdued.
Although the Portuguese were the first to put Seychelles on the map in 1501, it was left to the British to attempt the first landing on these uninhabited islands in 1609. Apart from the pirates who sheltered here while waiting to plunder ships laden with rich cargo from the East, the Seychelles remained forgotten until 1742 when French expedition led by Lazare Picault landed at what is now Baie Lazare. The first French settlers and their African slaves arrived in 1770.
Seychelles is one of the last places on earth where nature still rules.
