The Spanish Explorers Ch. 5

Christopher Columbus 1492 Propelled by Europe’s goal of finding new trade routes to Asia, Christopher Columbus (Cristóbal Colón) sailed to the Americas. However, not until after his death would the value of his discovery truly be known

COLUMBUS’S FOUR VOYAGES

At first they called the land the Indies because of the early belief that they were in India Eventually Spanish explorers realized that the Americas could provide even greater riches than what could have been earned through trade with Asia. For the next 150 years after Columbus’s voyages, adventurers explored the new lands in search of wealth.

After Columbus’s 4 th voyage he became the governor of a new settlement in Santo Domingo on the island of Hispaniola. He was disliked by his men because he enslaved and killed thousands of natives. He was eventually arrested and sent back to Spain in chains. Columbus died in This is his Tomb in Seville, Spain

Columbus’s voyages led to further European exploration and colonization, forever changing the Americas.
