Shortly after Columbus arrived home after his final voyage, Queen Isabella died (on November 26, 1504). Earlier, Columbus had lost his titles of governor and viceroy. Over the next year and a half until his death, Columbus tried to regain his lost titles of governor and viceroy, as well as financial benefits from the Indies. In May 1505 King Ferdinand finally gave Columbus a hearing in which he was refused the return of his titles. He did however win his financial claims. Columbus's share was 2 percent of the riches of the Indies, quite a lot. This gave the Columbus family a lifestyle equal to that of the richest nobility in Spain. On May 20, 1506 Columbus died.
