Best Answer

Coronado has two main things he did for modern life. First, Coronado island (which is actually a peninsula), near San Diego, is named after him. Also, Coronado is mentioned in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. At the beginning Indy is fighting for a silver cross called Coronado's cross. The ship he goes on to fight for the cross is also called The Coronado.
