May 1499 CE

Ojeda, on returning to Spain, had been commissioned by the Catholic Monarchs, without the permission of Columbus, to sail for America again, which he does on May 18, 1499, with three caravels.

He travels with the pilot and cartographer Juan de la Cosa and the Italian navigator Amerigo Vespucci.

This is the first of a series of what have become known as the "minor journeys" or "Andalusian journeys" that are made to the New World.
