Boca Raton comes from the Spanish Boca de Ratones, literally "mouse mouth." The meaning of ratones here is uncertain; some read it as an old sailors' term for rough rocks at a harbor mouth, which would make the name "rugged inlet." Early maps used Boca de Ratones for an inlet in what is now Biscayne Bay and labeled the Boca Raton area Rio Seco, "dry river"; mapmakers later moved the name north.
The area was home to people of the Glades culture. After Spain gave Florida to Britain in 1763, the remaining native people of the region were taken to Cuba, and in the 1770s Bernard Romans found only abandoned villages. The first significant settler was Captain Thomas Moore Rickards, who arrived in 1895, lived in a driftwood house beside the East Coast Canal and surveyed and sold land. Settlement picked up after Henry Flagler's railroad linked West Palm Beach to Miami. In 1920 Boca Raton was a farming town of about 100 people. It was incorporated in 1924, and the architect Addison Mizner was made town planner. In 1925 Mizner announced plans for "the foremost resort city on the North American continent," and his development company sold $5 million of stock in less than a week. Markers recall the Barefoot Mailmen, the old town hall and the Florida East Coast depot.
