. According to you, Antonio Pegafeta Ferdinand Magellan is a portuguese explorer, he submitted to the
king and queen want to explore from the west ward to the east ward even though many did not agree
with what he wanted to do. What he did was to prove that Ferdinand Magellan was right that he could
go to the east using the west. The reason why Magellan wanted to go to the east is because of the
Moloques area that has many types of spicy engrindents that popular in European’s. The start of
Magellan's exploration on September 20, 1519 with 5 ships and 270 crew members. They passed
through the Atlantic Ocean, they arrived in Brazil going down south ward and while they were traveling,
I criticized why a Portuguese was in charge of them, so Ferdinand Magellan immediately took action and
killed the other crew members and sent them off the ship. After 99 days of sailing, they arrived in Guam
on March 6, 1521. After that, they arrived in Cebu on March 16, 1521. Here he talked with Raha
Humabon, and they discussed joining forces to conquer Lapu lapu Raha in Mactan. They talked to Lapu
lapu to unite and cooperate with what they wanted to do in the country at that time but they
immediately rejected Magellan's offer and Ferdinand Magellan's action was to burn the house of the
native people because of what he did this angered the natives and they were rushed by the native
people at that moment and Ferdinand Magellan was hit by an arrow in his foot. After that incident,
Ferdinand Magellan immediately returned to the native Filipinos and what Magellan did not expect,
there were many Filipinos they would fight against and on that occasion the crew members of Ferdinand
Magellan ran away because of their fear of the native people and Only 15 members are left to fight. In
the final battle, Ferdinand Magellan's group was defeated and he was also killed by native Filipinos who
had many tattoos on their bodies. In that incident Antonio Pegafetta said “ They rush upon with iron
with bamboo spears and their cutlasses until killed our mirror, our light, our comfort and our true
guide when they wounded him, he turned back many times to see whether where all in the boats.
There upon, holding him dead, we wounded, retreated as best could, to boats, which were already
pulling off.” On November 8, 1521, the remaining troops arrived in the Moluccas with two of their ships
here and they decided to leave one to repair a Trinidad ship and the so-called Victoria ship decided to
return to Spain. The Victoria ship returned to Spain on September 6, 1522, the total number of troops
that returned was 18 that day and in the days that followed they reached a total of 35 troops that
returned to Spain. The good thing about Ferdinand Magellan's voyage proved that the world is round
and not flat. I also found out who really killed my Magellan, Lapu lapu or Lapu lapu's troops. The journey
of Ferdinand Magellan also gave us many benefits because many things were discovered during his
journey.

encounter between Filipinos and Europeans. His book "Report on the First Voyage Around the World"
contains some of the earliest documents on the language and culture of the islands of Samar and Cebu.
. The purpose of Pigafetta's voyage is knowldge of the natural world and use of its resources are themes
that run throughout Pigafetta's diary, as the purpose of his voyage was to find valuable natural produce
(spices) for sale.
Look for Bias.
. According to JM Atone the writer Antonio Pigafetta is bias because of the short sentences in the
documentary “ The people have no arms but use sticks which have fish bone at the end. They are poor
but ingenious and great thieves and for sake of that we called these three island the Landrones Island”
because of his sentece , JM Atone said that Antonio Pegafetta is biased because Landrones it means
thief in Spanish. The only basis is the clothing of Pilipino even we say Philippines is poor the European
want our country because of more gold.
