Gradually the minds of the men were becoming diseased through terror, even the calmness of the weather increasing their fears, for with such light winds, and from the east, too, how were they ever to get back? However, as if to allay their feelings, the wind soon shifted to the southwest.Ī little after sunset on the 25th, Columbus and his officers were examining their charts and discussing the probable location of the island Cipango,* which the admiral had placed on his map, when from the deck of the Pinta arose the cry of ” Land ! Land ! ” At once Columbus fell on his knees and gave thanks to Heaven. In his first journey, Columbus visited San Salvador in the Bahamas (which he was convinced was Japan), Cuba (which he thought was China) and Haiti (where he found gold).īut still discontent was growing. Mountains and hills, plains and pastures, are both fertile and beautiful…the harbors are unbelievably good and there are many wide rivers of which the majority contain gold…There are many spices, and great mines of gold and other metals…”. His descriptions were part fact, part fiction: “Hispaniola is a miracle. He insisted he had reached Asia (it was Cuba) and an island off the coast of China (Hispaniola). The word ají is still used in South American Spanish for chili peppers.Ĭolumbus’s report to the royal court in Madrid was extravagant. In his log, he wrote “there is also plenty of ají, which is their pepper, which is more valuable than black pepper, and all the people eat nothing else, it being very wholesome” (Turner, 2004, P11). He did not bring any of the coveted East Indies spices, such as the exceedingly expensive black pepper, ginger or cloves. He displayed several kidnapped natives and what gold he had found to the court, as well as the previously unknown tobacco plant, the pineapple fruit, the turkey and the sailor’s first love, the hammock. Word of his finding new lands rapidly spread throughout Europe.
After spending more than one week in Portugal, he set sail for Spain. Columbus went to meet with the king at Vale do Paraíso (north of Lisbon). Relations between Portugal and Castile were poor at the time. Some have speculated that his landing in Portugal was intentional. The king requested that Columbus go to Vale do Paraíso to meet with him. Not finding the King John in Lisbon, Columbus wrote a letter to him and waited for the king’s reply. He anchored next to the King’s harbor patrol ship on March 4, 1493, where he was told a fleet of 100 caravels had been lost in the storm.Īstoundingly, both the Niña and the Pinta were spared. Leaving the island of Santa Maria in the Azores, Columbus headed for Spain, but another storm forced him into Lisbon. To achieve that goal, “He wrestled his ship against the wind and ran into a fierce storm.” He set sail for home by way of the Azores.
