Years: 1443 - 1443
Nuno Tristão is in 1443 sent out by Henry again, and presses beyond Cape Blanc to reach the Bay of Arguin.
On Arguin island, Tristão encounters a Sanhaja Berber village, the first permanent settlement seen by Henry's captains on the West African coast.
Tristão immediately attacks it, taking some fourteen villagers captive and returns to Portugal with his captives.
