Magellan attempted to find a westward route to the Spice Islands of Indonesia. This voyage became known as the first successful attempt at world circumnavigation. He did not complete his final westward voyage; he was killed during the Battle of Mactan in the Philippines (April 27, 1521). However, as he died farther west than the Spice Islands, which he had visited on earlier voyages from the west, he became one of the first individuals to cross all the meridians of the globe.
