In 1499-1500, the Spanish, under Alonso de Ojeda and including Amerigo Vespucci, were reputed to have landed on the shore of Cabo de la Vela in present-day Colombia. Many natives fled into the woods when they landed. The Spanish followed them and came upon a settlement where many strange animals described as being horrible snakes with feet and wings (iguanas) were held and being prepared for a meal. The natives were very hospitable, even offering their women. See Theodor de Bry, America, part 10 (# 35312-5 ). This image follows the special title page for Herrera y Tordesillas, Antonio de, Eerste zee-togt van Alonso d'Ojeda, en Amerikus Vesputius, ter nader ontdekking en bemagtiging van nieuwe landen, gedaan na de West-Indien, beneffens die van Christoffel Guerre, en Pero Alonso Nino, in 't jaar 1499 ... , Leiden, 1706. Excerpt and translation of the author's: Historia general de los hechos de los Castellanos, first printed Madrid, 1601. This collection of voyages consists of 127 parts, each having a special title page, separate pagination, and register. The voyages covering the period from 1246 to 1696 are arranged chronologically.
