This voyage led him to the shores of San Salvador in the Bahamas. Convinced that he had landed in the Indies, he named the indigenous people Indians. The continent, however, was named after a Florentine merchant, Amerigo Vespucci, who traveled there nine years later under the Portuguese flag. In one of his letters to his patron, he wrote that he had discovered Mundus Novus, the New World that had been unknown to their ancestors.
