You are asking about Ponce de Leon. He actually wasn't looking for a fountain of youth ( this is another one of these fables that somehow became history). The original version of the fountain of youth came to Europe through India over a 1000 years before de Leon. Like most explorers of his time he was looking for a water route to Asia.

What has Ponce De Leon done in his life?
I did a project on Ponce De Leon once in 5th grade- and still remember the answers. These are some of the things I learned that he did in his life:Juan Ponce De Leon journeyed from Euorpe to the "New World" or North America. He landed in Florida, but of course it had no name. Spain had sponsored his trip there, if you need know that. Anyways, he was looking for the Fountain of Youth, a "magical" fountain legend to make the elderly young again. But he died before he could find the mythical Fountain. However, he named the state we now know as Florida after flowers that were beautiful in his eyes. I have no idea what the flowers were named, but I'm sure it was Florida-somthing.
