Explorers Come from Far Away Guided Notes Day 1 New World Explorers Traveled Across the Atlantic Ocean from Countries in Europe KEY Explorers Come From Far Away Guided Notes Day 1 New World Explorers traveled across the Atlantic Ocean from countries in Europe. An explorer is a traveler who searches for new places. Europeans, like Christopher Columbus from Spain, had been trading with people in Africa and Asia for many years. They got gold, silver, metals, and furs. Cause Effect Sailing by boat and traveling by So, the king and queen of land to Asia was a long trip. Spain paid for his trip. Columbus thought he could get to Asia much faster if he sailed across the Atlantic Ocean. Columbus did not find a shorter route, or direction to travel. He landed on islands in the Caribbean and claimed the land for Spain. Many Europeans came after Columbus and felt they had a right to conquer, or take over, the land. For King and Country Kings and queens in Europe wanted to send explorers to the New World. New land and riches were big motives, or reasons, for exploration. Merchants and missionaries wanted to expand their knowledge and spread Christianity. When explorers claimed land in new places, they claimed it for their king and queen. Their travels were “for King and Country”. This meant that when explorers found the land, it belonged to their king and country. Day 2 Hernando de Soto Hernando de Soto was an explorer from Spain. He went on many trips to explore unknown lands. He was the first European to explore the New World. He was looking for gold and slaves. While exploring he met many Native Americans including those from the village of Cofitachiqui. He captured the Lady of Cofitachiqui since he thought that she could lead him to more land and riches. He mistreated the Native Americans that he met along his way. He never found the gold and silver he was looking for. He traveled north from Spanish Florida and encountered Native Americans in South Carolina. But, he did not establish a permanent settlement in South Carolina. Instead, he traveled to many places throughout southeastern United States in search of riches. Day 3 Jean Ribault Jean Ribault was an explorer from France. He was chosen to lead an exploration to the “New World” to claim land for French people called the Huguenots, to compete with the Spanish. They called their settlement Port Royal and built a fort called Charlesfort (located near present day Parris Island), to honor the French king, King Charles IX. Once the colony was set up, Ribault returned to France to get more supplies for his men. A colony is a place that is controlled by a far away ruler. When he arrived in France he had problems and wasn’t able to return back to South Carolina with the much needed supplies. The men at Port Royal struggled because they had trouble finding food and fighting with local Native Americans. After a while, they gave up and headed back to France. Juan Pardo Juan Pardo was an explorer from Spain. He landed in what used to be called Charlesfort (located at present day Parris Island) and renamed it Santa Elena. Pardo was ordered to explore inland and claim land for Spain. He met many Indian tribes along his way including the Yemassee on his journey. He tried to make friends with the Native Americans because the Spanish were beginning to see how important trade was. Pardo traveled the midlands and up through the Up Country. He even traveled through the village of Cofitachiqui, just like De Soto. He was searching for a route to silver mines. Unfortunately, Native Americans attacked the forts that Pardo built, including Santa Elena. Spain was beaten and no longer tried to set up forts and claim land inland. Day 4 Henry Woodward Henry Woodward was an explorer from England. His ship was called Carolina. He and his men landed at Bull’s Bay. He established the first English settlement, or place where people start a new community, in South Carolina on the Ashley River and named it Charles Fort (present day Charleston). While he traveled and explored the interior of South Carolina, he became friends with the Native Americans by respecting them and treating them fairly. He also traded with the Native Americans. William Hilton William Hilton was an explorer from England. He was hired by the English settlers in Barbados to explore the coast of South Carolina. He looked for good land for plantations. Plantations are large farms. He claimed an area now known as Hilton Head. Later, English explorers became an important part of the English colony in South Carolina.

  • Conquistadors at Saltville in 1567 Revisited
    Conquistadors at Saltville in 1567 Revisited Jim Glanville © 2014 Introduction This article continues and extends its author’s study of the interaction between the archeological and documentary evidence for the Spanish period of sixteenth century Virginia history. In 2004, the author published in the Smithfield Review an article titled “Conquistadors at Saltville in 1567? A Review of the Archeological and Documentary Evidence,” 1 which was footnoted in a review of sixteenth century Florida historiogra phy published in 2012 in connection with the 500-year anniversary of Juan Ponce de León’ s exploration of the Florida coast in 1513.2 Today, the story of the Spanish attack in Southwest Virginia is a part of mainstream Virginia history.3 The author subsequently published three follow up articles about the conquistadors. The first of these described a metal blade found in Smyth County, Virginia, that its finder speculated might have a Spanish connection (it did not).4 The second article was a brief progress report.5 The third article discussed the modern background to the story of the conquistadors and how that story developed.6 The present article reviews the routes of the Hernando de Soto7 (1539– 1542) and Juan Pardo (1566–1568) entradas into the American Southeast as revealed by the combination of archeological and documentary evidence. It also describes ongoing archeological studies at the conquistadors’ base camp at present-day Morganton, North Carolina; it cites two recently-found 145-year old newspaper reports (reproduced in the Appendix) of a buried Spanish soldier—who lies just a few miles outside the southern boundary of modern-day Virginia; and, via an examination of documentary evidence for the entradas, it compares with a modern map the region of Virginia shown in the third (1584) edition of the first-ever printed world atlas.

  • Las Crónicas De La Misión Española a Virginia En 1570
    Charles B. Moore 764 Textos e intertextualidad: Las crónicas sobre la colonia jesuita de Pedro Menéndez de Avilés en Virginia en 1570 Charles B. Moore Gardner-Webb University Introducción Mucho se ha escrito sobre la exploración y colonización del sureste de los Estados Unidos por los conquistadores españoles Ponce de León, Lucas Vázquez de Ayllón, Pánfilo de Narváez, Hernando de Soto, Tristán de Luna y Pedro Menéndez de Avilés entre 1513-1574. Se olvida, sin embargo, que Menéndez de Avilés, fundador de San Agustín (Florida) y Santa Elena (Carolina del Sur) en 1565, también estableció otro asentamiento en el sureste de Virginia en 1570. Mientras se ha comprobado por las crónicas de la época (i.e. La Florida del Inca Garcilaso, los Naufragios de Cabeza de Vaca) que los conquistadores españoles atravesaron los pantanos, montañas y páramo de la Florida, Georgia, Carolina del Sur, Carolina del Norte, Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, y Luisiana, la misión fracasada de los sacerdotes de Menéndez de Avilés en Virginia es un caso especial. No solamente fue la última expedición de la época de Avilés, sino que ocurrió en un lugar marginado del resto del sureste, una región ya muy lejana de los centros del imperio español en Perú y México.1 Por ser la última colonia, la derrota en Virginia marcó el fin de la época de las grandes exploraciones españolas en el sureste de Norteamérica y comenzó una postura defensiva contra el empuje cada vez más agresivo de los ingleses y norteamericanos en el sureste (Gradie 132). El discurso del silencio en la historia europea primitiva de Virginia Como escribe Beatriz Pastor en su libro, Discursos narrativos de la conquista: mitificación y emergencia (1988), algunos conquistadores o eligieron guardar silencio sobre sus propios viajes o murieron inoportunamente antes de que pudieran escribir (184).

  • Joara, Cuenca, and Fort San Juan
    I Joara, Cuenca, and Fort San Juan Deep in the country north and west of Santa Elena, near an Indian town named Joara, was a place where the trail crested a hill and gave the captain his first glimpse of the rugged lands that lay just ahead. Whatever paths wended up and over those steep slopes would no doubt have been precarious for any men so laden with supplies, even in the best of times, but it was late Decem- ber now, icy and cold, andproof Pardo shared his company’s disquiet as he regarded the rim of snow-filled mountains on the horizon. They had put a hundred leagues or more behind them already, most of it across fine, open country, but he knew—looking across at the high ridge—that any effort to push beyond its frozen passes with tired, overburdened men would be impractical at best, foolhardy at worst. He was neither. Even so, he would not be bogged down here with so little yet to show for himself. It was nearly dusk. He gave a nod to his sergeant, Moyano, that they should make camp now before night was upon them. In the morning they would arrive at the town the Indians called Joara, and while the company recovered he would take the counsel of his of- ficers before deciding where they should go from there. Standing on the crest of the hill, he was suddenly struck by how much this land in the shadow of the mountains reminded him of Cuenca, of home. He shut his eyes and let himself believe, but for a moment, that the setting sun on his face was that of Castile.

  • The Relations Between Spaniards and Natives During the 18 Months the Fort San Juan Lasted Review by Ihintza Marguirault
    Fort San Juan: the relations between Spaniards and Natives during the 18 months the Fort San Juan lasted Review by Ihintza Marguirault Fort San Juan and the Limits of Empire: Colonialism and Household Practice at the Berry Site Edited by Robin A. Beck, Christopher B. Rodning, and David G. Moore by University Press of Florida, 2016 From 2001 to 2010 excavations were conducted. Ten years of digging, ten years of investigating and understanding, ten years on the Berry site (in nowadays Burke County, North Carolina) to demonstrate in a definitive fashion the location of the Fort San Juan built by Juan Pardo, a Spaniard explorer. Built in 1566, the Fort was completely destroyed in 1568. During the eighteen months it lasted, the relationship between Europeans and Natives from Joara went from very friendly to the complete destruction of the Spanish compound. This book, divided in six main chapters, revolves around one main question: How did these Europeans and their Native hosts at Joara construct and maintain social relations through household practice? It is known that the Fort only lasted for eighteen months, at first the Spaniards were very welcomed, but eventually it was the very ones who welcomed them as friends that led the destruction of their Fort. The question the authors try to tackle with these excavations is to understand what happened between them. To try and give an answer to these questions, the research conducted on site has been very precise, and the various authors of this book render a detailed description of their discoveries. Maybe too detailed indeed; especially for someone who is not a professional archaeologist.
