Use the Print command in your browser's File menu to print this page. Pizarro, Francisco (1478?-1541), was a Spanish conqueror. His conquest of the Inca empire in Peru opened the way for Spain's colonization of most of South America. Early life. Pizarro was born in Trujillo, Spain. His father was a royal captain of infantry. Francisco's parents never married each other. Poor relatives of his mother raised the boy, who never learned to read. In 1502, Pizarro left for the West Indies. He lived for a while in Hispaniola, the main Spanish base in the New World. He may have been aided by a brother of his father's who was already in the West Indies. First expeditions. In 1509, Pizarro left Hispaniola to take part in exploration of the Caribbean coast of northern South America and southern Central America. He served as Vasco Nunez de Balboa's chief lieutenant when Balboa marched across the Isthmus of Panama to the Pacific Ocean in 1513 (see Balboa, Vasco Nunez de ). Six years later, the Spaniards founded Panama City on the Pacific coast. Pizarro was one of its wealthiest and most powerful citizens. The Spaniards in Panama City became interested in reports of a rich Indian empire somewhere to the south. In 1524, Pizarro began the first of several expeditions to search for this empire. He was helped by another Spaniard, Diego de Almagro, who served chiefly as business manager of the expeditions. Pizarro led the explorations down the Pacific coast. At first, bad weather and Indian attacks prevented the voyagers from finding the empire, which was centered in what is now Peru. Pizarro finally reached his goal in late 1527 or early 1528.

Introduction to Medieval History The Discovery of the New World and the End of the Old Dictionary and Thesaurus Preliminary Thoughts American textbooks often carry the history of Europe up into the Renaissance, and then plunge into the Age of Discovery and Exploration as a preliminary to the study of United States history. As a result, we are much more aware of the effect of the Discovery of the New World, as the Europeans conceived it, upon the Americas, than the effect that the opening up of new lands had upon Europe. If we were more aware of the changes that the discoveries caused, we might be willing to concede that these discoveries were a basic factor in the end of the Middle Ages. Gold and Silver Columbus' voyage of 1492 was intended to discover a shorter all-water route to China and India than the route around Africa that was being opened up by the Portuguese, and the aim of both was to be able to by-pass the Muslim and Byzantine middle-men through which the spices of the East reached Western Europe. Although Columbus died still believing that he had opened up the Indies to Spain which is why Europeans called the native inhabitants of the Americas "Indians" most realized that a great land mass lay between them and the spices of the East, and also began to realize that there were sources of gold and silver there. The natives had amassed a great deal of golden treasure over the centuries, and the first flood of "new" gold into Spain and Europe came as a result of the

These words signify a turning point in human history, when the world was enlarged beyond all imagining, and knowledge of the New World was born. Using archival documents, paintings and maps, along with modern views of historical settings, this exhibit recreates the world and life of Christopher Columbus, the Genoese. New Spain: The Frontiers of Faith More than one hundred years before the first English colony was founded at Jamestown in 1607, Spanish explorers and settlers had established a network of thriving communities in the Caribbean and were preparing to embark on a spectacular enterprise to conquer and colonize much of the Western Hemisphere. Sustained by their profound faith in their goals, they created - and recorded in countless documents - a complex texture of social, economic, and cultural systems. Peru Mestizo: Life and Art in a Colonial Kingdom The encounter of Francisco Pizarro and the Inca in the Andean highlands of Peru changed everything-forever. It led to a new people, a new culture, a new Christianity, an American synthesis of vision and values, and a unique school of art that flourished for three centuries. You are now invited to a very special encounter of your own with Peru Mestizo: Life and Art in a Colonial Kingdom.

The European Voyages of Exploration Latin America The earliest inhabitants of America were hunters who migrated from the Asian mainland across the Bering Straits land bridge between 40,000 and 25,000 B.C.E. They adapted quickly to their environment. Their population in Central America and in the high valleys of the Andes alone had grown to approximately 45 million by 1492, the year Christopher Columbus arrived in America. In 1500, over 350 major tribal groups, 15 distinct cultural centres and more than 160 linguistic stocks existed in Latin America, a variety so great as to invite comparison with all of Eurasia or all of Africa. Map of New Spain 1540 The Europeans incorrectly categorised all these groups under the title of "Indian." "Indian" was of course a misnomer since it originated in a geographical misconception on the part of the Christopher Columbus who imagined himself near the East Indies. Having only one name applied to the diverse indigenous populations also presented a unity between these groups that did not actually exist. Even after contact with the European invaders, each group sought out the most advantageous situation for itself alone. This lack of unity was a key element to Spanish expansion as will be seen in the accounts of the conquests of the Aztec and Inca Empires. Any commonality among the diverse indigenous groups came from their shared state of relative isolation from the rest of humanity. In the Old World, people, disease strains and technologies had been continually passed back and forth over the entire great landmass of Europe-Asia-Africa for centuries. New World peoples had no such contact and this resulted in devastating population losses due to a lack of resistance to the incoming Old World diseases like smallpox. Another way in which these groups were similar is that none had iron and steel. The Europeans knew how to manufacture and use steel weapons and this knowledge gave them the ultimate military superiority critical to their conquest of the New World.

Significant Explorers and Civilizations of the Americas A WebQuest for 5th Grade (Social Studies) Designed by Patty James pmjames@burke.k12.nc.us Introduction Task Process Evaluation ... Credits Introduction Beginning with the Vikings in the 8th century, the Americas have been explored by many people. During the 1500's and 1600's European countries began exploring across the Atlantic Ocean. Christopher Columbus was one of the first explorers to attempt this great feat. His accomplishments sparked the interest of exploration in many other countries. Explorers have had various reasons for risking their lives when setting out across the world. Marco Polo was searching for new trade routes, David Livingstone traveled across Africa as a missionary, while others were motivated by the need to chart and map new areas. In this webquest, you will find out what drove the exploration for these significant explorers and how did the motives for explorations differ from country to country? The Task You will work in your assigned group to search the Internet and use print materials to identify what drove the exploration of your explorers. During your search you will be looking for certain aspects of his exploration. Once you have obtained these aspects, you will be able to complete the following:
