Sobre IBD

Amerigo Vespucci ( 9 March 1451 - 22 February 1512) was an Italian merchant, explorer, and navigator from the Republic of Florence, from whose name the term 'America' is derived. He became a Castilian citizen in 1505.Between 1497 and 1504, Vespucci participated in at least two voyages of the Age of Discovery, first on behalf of Spain (1499-1500) and then for Portugal (1501-1502). In 1503 and 1505, two booklets were published under his name, containing colourful descriptions of these explorations and other alleged voyages.
