Crossroads: Middle School Curriculum Unit II: Contact: Europe and America Meet, 1492-1673 Question/Problem 2: Describe the reasons for and the outcomes of the European explorers between 1492 and 1620 Contents Objectives Description of lesson/activity Resources Objectives: The students will be able to: describe the goals and accomplishments of an individual explorer. determine the exploration policy of one European country. rank and defend the exploration achievements of competing European countries. gather relevant information from a variety of resources. Description of lesson/activity: The students will have completed the research and class discussions about the situation in Europe during the 1400s which caused the Europeans to explore. Students have also identified the attributes necessary for an explorer. Students will now ex amine the lives and explorations of several individual explorers. Rather than dwell on a chronology of explorers and accomplishments, the activity has been designed to emphasize the in±depth research of a few explorers and to use this research to infer the exploration policies of the countries involved. The students should be divided into groups of three. One student from each group should be assigned to gather information on three explorers from Spain; the second student should gather information on explorers from France; and the third on explo rers from England and the Netherlands. Spain and France were highlighted because they were the leading countries during this time period. England and the Netherlands were examined together because they had similar exploration policies and were no t as prominent as the others in the search for new lands. Portugal was not included because their early discoveries were dealt with in the first part of this unit as the cause for other Europeans to explore. Fact sheets have been provided for the following explorers:

I. N OVUS O RBIS I MAGES OF THE N EW W ORLD This section of the exhibition shows the evolving geographic views of North America—from the first maps to represent the New World as continents to the beginning of French exploration in the Mississippi Valley. When Europeans learned of the immense new continents that blocked their way to Asia, they did not abandon hope of finding a direct passage to the Orient. Geographic thinking shifted to the possibility that the new land masses could either be bypassed altogether, passed through via straits, or traversed on short overland routes. Vasco Núñez de Balboa found such a land route in Central America when he crossed the isthmus of Panama to the “Southern Sea”—in 1513. In 1524 Giovanni da Verrazano, a Florentine employed by the king of France to find a passage to the Pacific Ocean, mistook the large body of water to the west of the Outer Banks of North Carolina for the Pacific Ocean. The map by Sebastian Münster ( Item 2 ) shows this false “Sea of Verrazano.”—Nearly a century later, John Farrer’s 1652 map of Virginia, which located the Pacific Ocean just over the Blue Ridge, confirmed the persistence of this yearning to find an easy route to Asia (see Item 6 By the 1600s, hope for a Panama-like isthmus crossing in North America faded. Moreover, once the Spanish gained control of the southern sea routes, French and English efforts to reach Asia shifted northward in the quest to find a Northwest Passage. Seamen from several generations—including Jacques Cartier, Martin Frobisher, Henry Hudson, Samuel de Champlain, and others—searched for this route across the continent. These explorers made several discoveries of “passages”—which were later proven false or nonviable, but their efforts added the St. Lawrence River, the Great Lakes and the Hudson Bay to the maps of North America. All of the maps in this section show some form of Northwest Passage. The quest to find this route persisted until Captain James Cook finally disproved the existence of the Northwest Passage in 1778.

ISSN 1357-4442 Editor: Simon Denison Issue no 53, June 2000 FEATURES Great sites: Llyn Cerrig Bach Mike Parker Pearson recalls the site that revealed the religious significance of water in later prehistoric Britain The years of the Second World War were a curiously productive period for archaeology in Britain. The famous Anglo-Saxon treasures of Sutton Hoo were hastily dug out in the months before war broke out, and `rescue archaeology' - the emergency excavation of construction sites - was born in the work carried out by WF Grimes on new defence installations all around Britain. Few wartime discoveries, however, proved to be as dramatic or far-reaching as the chance finds made by RAF engineers building a remote airfield in North Wales in 1942. RAF Valley, near Llanfihangel-yn-Nhowyn on Anglesey, was built over the former lake of Llyn Cerrig Bach, and the finds were made when engineers began digging out sediments from the lake to stabilise sand dunes and level the ground surface. In amongst the heaps of peat they noticed iron weapons and chains. In July 1943 the director of the National Museum of Wales, Sir Cyril Fox, received a letter from RAF Valley's resident engineer informing him of the finds. Fox visited for two days in August and arrangements were made to ship the material to the National Museum, a task which was finally completed in 1945. Despite wartime secrecy

87. Froblisher looked westward for an opportunity to share in the spoils of the new world, martin frobisher THE PIRATEEXPLORER. martin frobisher (c. 1539 - 1594) http://www.canadahistory.com/sections/eras/erasmartin_frobisher.htm

As King Philip and Spain grew rich from their conquests and empire building in Central and South America, England looked westward for an opportunity to share in the spoils of the new world, or gain access to the Far East and the valuable silk and spice trade which it offered. Many stories and rumours concerning a great north west passage through the America's were constantly talked about in the seaports and naval circles of England's sailing community. Martin Frobisher was a sailor with a dream to try and discover this mysterious passage to the orient. He and his fellow sea captains of the time have plundered and pillaged the Spanish ships and colonies of the America's but dream of a safer manner in which to make their fortune. He had served a term in the tower for his pirate activities and felt that a great voyage of discovery might redeem his reputation and position among the English peoples. He set sail in the spring of 1576 across the Atlantic and fought the storms and Icebergs of the North Atlantic. He managed to penetrate the Artic frontier of North East Canada and believed that he had found the route to the Orient. His first contact with the Inuit peoples was a strange and bizarre interlude. They paddle out to meet him in their kayaks and Frobisher send 5 of his men ashore with them to find out what they can. They disappear and are not seen again. Frobisher decided to capture an Inuit in order to provide evidence of his contact with these new people and as revenge for the abduction and potential murder of his seamen.

Antarctic Polar Regions The great saga of Arctic (page 1) 1/ From Origins until 1895 : Earlier Explorations (page 1) Pytheas was a great Greek navigator who lived in Marseilles (Masillia); around 330 years before our era, he undertook a great sea voyage towards the regions of North Europe. Little is of course known about this undertaking, except for the fact that he genuinely saw the midnight sun and that he berthed in a land that he named Thule. When he returned, his fellow countrymen branded him a liar. In 982, the Viking, Eric the Red, was banned from the land of Iceland. Because he had killed two sons of one of his enemies, Eric the Red had to leave his native Iceland. Instead of returning to Norway, the country of his ancestors, he set a south-westerly course. After five days of sailing, he discovered a land of green fields that he named Greenland. Twenty years later, one of his sons was to be the first man to tread American soil when he landed at Newfoundland. In 1553, Sir Hugh Willoughby obeyed orders. The time of the great discoveries had arrived. England wanted to discover a northern route to India, which at the time was called Cathay. It was Sir Hugh Willoughby who took on this important mission; in 1953, the navigator set off for the northern seas armed with three vessels. Blocked by the ice, the mariner decided to obey orders and to winter off the Siberian coast. The indigenous people found the entire crew dead a year later. Richard Chancellor, the captain of the third ship, was luckier: he found shelter in the bay of Arkhangelsk; learning about this, the Tsar invited him to Moscow. Two years later, in 1555, the English Muscovy Company was founded.

Their knowledge of nature — they imagined a narwhal tusk to be a "sea unicorne" horn and tested it as an antidote to poison — wasn’t much better than their knowledge of geography. Frobisher thought the bay that would someday bear his name was actually a strait with Asia on one side and North America on the other. His grasp of metallurgy was so weak, he may have actually believed the worthless black rocks he collected near Baffin Island were full of gold. But he was encouraged by the supposed promise of the black rocks he found on the "Meta Incognita" or unknown land. He hooked up with assayers or metal testers who were willing to back up his claims that the rocks he found actually were rich in gold.

We could backtrack all the way to the 1492 first voyage of Columbus, but going back to 1497 will suffice. It was on May 20th of that year that Italian explorer Giovanni Caboto, his name Anglicized to John Cabot by his English bosses, sailed from Bristol, possibly with his three sons in the ship Matthew. He sighted Newfoundland and sailed on to discover Hudson's Bay, which he mistook for the fabled Northwest Passage. He then spent the summer sailing down the North American coast to a point well south of New England before returning home. For this he received the munificent sum of 10 pounds from Henry VII. Henry might have been more appreciative if Cabot had returned with spices but Newfoundland provides few of the highly-valued plants. At the end of the fifteenth century the New World was just that. Not knowing of the existence of the Gulf Stream, which brought a warm climate to the British Isles, the English expected that waters at the top of the North American continent, being about the same latitude as Britain, would share a similar climate. Thus far the New World had proved a commercial flop. Europe would have to look to Asia and to Africa for profits. Luckily, the power of the

That could lead to wildly varied spellings, depending on where the writer came from. For example, Martin Frobisher, from Yorkshire, spelt "service" as "sarves" which would have been how he heard it. Often these variants extended to a person's own name. Frobisher signed himself as Frobiser, Frobissher and even Furbisher. Alternate spellings of names and places are given in parentheses. Consistency in spelling would not arrive until well into the 18th century. Introduction to an Expansionist Age H enry Hudson was born at a turning point in English history. England was in a tumultuous era, rapidly changing from a predominantly agrarian society to a mercantile and maritime power. Strife between religious factions tore the nation apart, and upset international alliances. Economies were changing, European wealth and trade shifting from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic. It was a turbulent, rich and exciting era.

"Ruling the World: The Cartographic Gaze in Elizabethan Accounts of the New World." Early Modern Literary Studies http://purl.oclc.org/emls/04-2/kochruli.htm When Sir Humphrey Gilbert declared English possession of Newfoundland on August 5, 1583, the ceremony was performed in St. John's Harbor before a fishing fleet of some thirty-six ships from Spain, Portugal, France and England. While the fishing banks and the beaches of Newfoundland had been used for decades by fishermen of various European nations, a right of English possession was now argued upon the precedent of John Cabot's voyage to the island in 1497, and Gilbert's rationale for making this possession official was the recent patent granted to him by Elizabeth. Since Gilbert's most immediate concern was likely the fishing fleet which had initially prevented two of his ships from entering the harbor, it was before this fleet that he had most reason to display his newly granted authority. The ceremony itself contained both a legal component (a reading of laws and terms relating to his patent and possession) and a more ritualistic, dramatic component (the digging of turf, the erection of a pillar displaying the queen's arms). Yet perhaps most interesting is the manner of staging this ceremony. As the event is retold in Sir George Peckham's

RECHERCHES ARCHÉOLOGIQUES SUR LES VOYAGES DE MARTIN FROBISHER (1576-1578) Dirigé par Réginald Auger Entre 1576 et 1578, l'explorateur anglais Martin Frobisher dirigea trois expéditions dans l'Arctique de l'est; le but de sa première expédition était de découvrir le passage du Nord-Ouest qui devait le conduire en Chine. Une carte géographique publiée à la même époque plaçait ce passage dans une zone tempérée au sud du cercle polaire. Comme c'était la coutume à l'époque, Frobisher rapporta des minerais lors de son premier voyage afin de prouver que l'expédition s'était bien aventurée dans des terres inconnues. Intrigué par la couleur que prenaient ces minerais après avoir été soumis à l'action du feu, Michael Lok, directeur de la compagnie de Muscovie, décida d'en apporter quelques échantillons à des alchimistes pour qu'ils vérifient leur teneur en métaux précieux, tels l'or et l'argent. Deux alchimistes conclurent que les minerais ne contenaient aucun métal précieux alors qu'un troisième considéra qu'ils renfermaient suffisamment d'or et d'argent pour qu'il vaille la peine d'entreprendre une autre expédition, dont le but serait d'en rapporter autant que possible. Bien que pour le moins équivoque, les résultats de ces tests sont la base des tout premiers projets d'extraction minière en Amérique du Nord.

Martin Frobisher by Daniel Martin Frobisher Biographical Facts Martin Frobisher was born in 1535 but people are not quite when he was actually born but it was around 1535. Martin Frobisher died in 1594. Even though he only lived to the age of about 59 he did complete alot in his life. When he was a young child he did sail in ships and went out to sea. It said in a book that he was killed of a bad wound but I am not so sure about that. Major Achievements Martin was very famous for his voyages. He only had three voyage but they were very good. The reason they were good because he discoverd what is now called Frobisher bay. He had his first voyage in 1576 his second in 1577 and his third in 1578. Martin was knighted. He was knighted by the queen of england. The reason he was knighted was so he could help defeat the spanish armada. Country The reason that the voyages were made so that they could mine these black rocks wich they thought contained gold. They were also done so Martin could try and find a passage to China. Martin thought the first inuits they met were chinese. The country they found there was very cold. The first expidition was not so they could mine the black rock but during the first expidition they found the black rocks.
