Who killed Hernan Cortes?

Answer 1

Hernan Cortes died in Seville (or Sevilla) Spain in 1547. If I remember correctly, he died in a monastery there, the same one from which Christopher Columbus sailed. Presumably he died of natural causes or illness. I have not read anything about his death that would indicate his being killed or murdered, Further research on his life and death can be found in a book entitled CONQUEST, which I believe is written by Hugh Thomas (not sure of the last name).

Answer 2

Hernán Cortés de Monroy y Pizarro, 1st Marquis of the Valley of Oaxaca. Born circa 1485, died December 2, 1547, was a Spanish Conquistador who led an expedition that caused the fall of the Aztec Empire and brought large portions of mainland Mexico under the rule of Spain in the early 16th century. Cortés was part of the generation of Spanish colonizers that began the first phase of the Spanish colonization of the Americas. <br /> <br /> <strong>Names</strong> <br /> <br /> While he is often now referred to as Hernán or Hernando Cortés, in his time he called himself Hernando or Fernando Cortés. The names Hernán, Hernando and Fernando are all equally correct. The latter two were most commonly used during his lifetime, but the former shortened form has become common in both the Spanish and English languages in modern times, and is the name by which many people know him today. Notice the spelling of Cortes as Cortez is incorrect. <br /> <br /> <br /> Hernan Cortes was a Spanish explorer who was not really a good guy. He killed Montezuma, a native american leader. Hernan Cortes set sail with 2500 settlers aboard on November 1, 1504 on a ship that was commanded by Alfonso Quintero. Hernan also put a big impact on Native Americans. He destroyed their villages, lives, and culture; he enslaved them.
