1526 CE

Ayllón, after returning to the Caribbean, leads an expedition to North America in 1526 with three ships and six hundred colonists with one hundred horses, bringing Francisco de Chicora with him.

After striking land at what Ayllón names the Jordan River (now the Santee River in South Carolina), one of his ships runs aground.

As the party goes ashore, Chicora immediately abandons the Spanish and flees to rejoin his own people.

He disappears from the historical record.
