Giovanni da Verrazano
The Catawba Indians were the first Native Americans the explorers encountered when they came to what is now North Carolina in the United States. The Catawba Indians spoke a language that was similar to the Sioux Indians.
this is some info from my essay intro... Giovanni Da Verrazano (born in 1485-and died in 1528 approximately) was an Italian Roman Catholic navigator who, in 1524, explored the northeast coast of North America from Cape Fear and North Carolina to Maine while searching for a Northwest Passage to Asia. Verrazano sailed for King Francis I of France. Verrazano's brother, Girolamo Da Verrazano, was a mapmaker who went with Giovanni on his voyage, and mapped the voyage himself.
Fort San Juan was built by the Spanish in 1567. Juan Pardo was the leader of the Spanish expedition. However the Spanish did not last in North Carolina because the Native Americans burned down six forts in North Carolina and South Carolina and killed all but one of the 120 men in these forts in 1568.
Giovanni da Verrazano landed in the area which is now known as North Carolina. He is known as the first European since the Norse to explore the coast of North American along the Atlantic Ocean.
In 1524, Verrazano explored the Eastern coastline of North America from what is now North Carolina to Newfoundland. Eleven years later in 1535, he set sail for the New World with Jacques Cartier.
