CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS

Christopher Columbus was a Genoese navigator in the service of the


Catholic Monarchs of Spain. In 1492 he led the expedition that culminated
in the encounter between Europe and America, marking a milestone in the
history of discoveries.
Christopher Columbus made four
voyages to America. Before reaching
what is now Honduras, on his fourth
voyage (1502-1504), he explored the
coasts of Central America. He arrived in
the region, but did not land directly in
Honduras.
Instead, he explored the northern
coast of South America and the region
of present-day Nicaragua before
heading to Honduras. This period was
marked by challenges and difficulties
for Columbus.
He landed in the Bay of Trujillo, north of
Honduras. During this exploration,
Columbus had interactions with local
indigenous populations, but his stay in
Honduras was brief and marked by
challenges and tensions with his crew
and the native populations.
Although Columbus made
important contributions to
geographical knowledge,
his later life was marked
by conflict and financial
challenges.
Death

He died in 1506 without having fully understood the scope of his


discoveries.
