He murdered his master, escaped, and journeyed back to Hungary to collect a promised reward of money and a coat of arms. He returned to England in time to participate in the settlement of Virginia. The Magna Carta English settlers who left their homeland to establish colonies in the New World brought with them charters guaranteeing that they and their heirs would "have and enjoy all liberties and immunities of free and natural subjects." European contact with Native Americans at Jamestown marked the beginning of a tumultuous relationship. Europeans enjoyed the food of the Native Americans, while the native population was quickly decimated by diseases brought by Europeans. Search BB How did you hear about Beyond Books?

Early American History The Age of Exploration Vocabulary Amerigo Vespucci, 1499 Argentina Claudius Ptolomy John Cabot, 1497 Key Concepts Until his death, Columbus believed he had reached the Indies. Although he had made four voyages for Spain, he never found the gold and spices that he had hoped would make him rich. Columbus died a very disappointed man. John Cabot was an Italian sea captain who led a voyage of discovery for England. Cabot had studied Columbus' voyages and made a similar trip paid for by England . Like Columbus, in 1497, he sailed across the Atlantic Ocean. Cabot kept a more westerly course and landed on Newfoundland When John Cabot returned to England, he told everyone he had landed in Cathay. At the time, Europeans called China, Cathay. The English were very pleased with his news and made Cabot a hero. That is when they gave him the English name, John Cabot. His Italian name was Giovani Caboto. Amerigo Vespucci was a sea captain and navigator who sailed for Spain . In 1499 he sailed to a place south of where Columbus had landed. In 1451

Volume Thirty-Three Essays in History Published by the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia. The Cabot Dilemma: the Limits of Historiography Derek Croxton In 1497, John Cabot knew the world was much bigger around than Columbus claimed, and that it thus would be impossible to sail straight from Spain to Asia. He had a simple yet ingenious plan, to start from a northerly latitude where the longitudes are much closer together, and where, as a result, the voyage would be much shorter. Sailing west in the bark Mathew , he could reach land comparatively quickly, revictual, and coast southward until he found "Cipango," or Japan.3 This scheme might have succeeded were it not for Canada; and it is at the point when Cabot reached the unwanted continent that the historians dispute begins. Historians have advanced a number of theories concerning his landfall: some say that Cabot landed in Labrador; others say it was in Nova Scotia or Cape Breton Island; still others support a landing in Newfoundland; and a minority argue for a landing all the way in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, or as far south as Maine. Each of these theories is based on some evidence and it is impossibleto refute any of them completely. The weight of the evidence seems to support the Nova Scotian landfall, an hypothesis which had been generally accepted since William F. Ganong argued persuasively for it in 1929.4 However, the discovery of a new document in the 1950s reopened the debate, which has continued with unabated fervor since that time.5

Popular Culture: Baseball to Rock and Roll Exploration and Settlement A lthough John Cabot (ca. 1450-1499) established an English claim to the North American continent as early as 1497-1498, more than half a century elapsed before Englishmen turned their attention to the new lands. The most well-known early colony was founded by Sir Walter Raleigh (ca. 1554-1618) on Roanoke Island, off the coast of present-day North Carolina. Raleigh sent groups of settlers for three years, beginning in 1584. Left for three years, the 117 men, women, and children had disappeared mysteriously by the time a relief party arrived in 1590. R aleigh's initiative was successfully imitated by a group of London investors who founded Virginia in 1607. Subsequently, a variety of English settlements took root in North America, conspicuous among which were the religious "plantations" of the Puritans in New England, the Quakers in the Middle Colonies, and the Catholics in Maryland. By the end of the seventeenth century, approximately 250,000 European men and women lived in the area that later became the United States. All but a handful were English.

English Exploration of the New World Begins While Spain built its New World empire, the seventy year delay in creating a real English presence in the Americas was compounded by the Tudor kings preoccupation with the consolidation of their claims to the throne, religious conflict, economic and political instability, and a bitter rivalry with Spain and the inability of England to compete with Spanish sea power. In an effort to secure the power and stability of the House of Tudor, Henry VII began a process that spanned over the life times of Henry VIII and Elizabeth I. In that process, England, a Catholic country, was transformed into a Protestant country, a great mercantile nation and a power to be reckoned with, facts that would profoundly effect future English settlement in the New World. map out the first details of the North American coast. His explorations secured a large part of North America for England King Henry approved a second voyage and financed one ship. Four other ships were financed by merchants hoping to cash in on the new route to the Orient. In May 1498, the five ships set sail. One returned to England for repairs and the other four, with John Cabot as captain, disappeared and never returned.

Essays on the History of North American Discovery and Exploration Edited by Stanley H. Palmer and Dennis Reinhartz Initially setting out with nothing more than the idea of taking a shortcut to the Orient, early explorers of North America stumbled upon a confusing array of rivers and wild lands inhabited by strange peoples. This volume encompasses four centuries in the discovery and exploration of North America-the great roadblock to the Orient-and focuses on a theme of interaction between the Old World and the New. David B. Quinn explores European interest in the New World, elaborating on the tradition that the French came for commercial reasons, the Spanish to seek wealth and spread the Catholic faith, and the English to find land on which some of their people could become prosperous and self-sufficient. Robert H. Fuson investigates the background of "The John Cabot Mystique," highlighting the known facts and fictions about the man claimed by some as the first post-Viking European visitor to Canada. The issues behind Olive Patricia Dickason's look at "Old World Law, New World Peoples, and Concepts of Sovereignty"

Rediscovery and Exploration In 1497 an Italian named John Cabot sailed west from Bristol, England, intent on finding a new trade route to the Orient for his patron, King Henry VII of England. This voyage led to the rediscovery of the eastern shores of Canada. Cabot was as confident as Columbus had been that a new seaway was now open to Asia. On a second voyage, the following year, Cabot explored the coast of North America, touching at various pointsnone too clearly chartedfrom Baffin Island to Maryland. The Cabot voyages gave England a claim by right of discovery to an indefinite area of eastern North America. Its later claims to Newfoundland, Cape Breton Island, and neighboring regions were at least partly based on Cabot's exploits. Of more immediate significance were the explorer's reports of immensely rich fishing waters. The Roman Catholic countries of Western Europe furnished a market that made the ocean voyage worthwhile, even if it were made to gather the harvest of the sea instead of the spices and jewels of the Orient. Almost every year after 1497 an international mixture of fishing vessels could be seen on the offshore fisheries southeast of Newfoundland and east of Nova Scotia. Occasionally such ships even cruised into the Gulf of St. Lawrence. At times their crews encountered Indians along the shores who were willing to part with valuable furs in exchange for articles of little worth such as beads and other trinkets. When it was realized that only the wilds of an unexplored new world had been discovered, there was a spirit of disillusionment in Europe. Gradually, however, this feeling was replaced by a fresh interest in North America, for Spanish and Portuguese adventurers were reported to be bringing home rich cargoes of gold and silver from the Caribbean. In 1524 King Francis I of France sent a Florentine navigator, Giovanni da Verrazano, on a voyage of reconnaissance overseas. Verrazano explored the eastern coastline of North America from North Carolina to Newfoundland, giving France too some claim to the continent by right of discovery.
