The Americas - North, South and Central. In 1493, Columbus returned, and on 1 November Peter Martyr referred to Columbus in a letter as the discoverer of "the New World" (novi orbis). In 1516, Martyr published a work whose title began De orbe novo("On the New World"). Actually, this is interesting because Columbus himself had no idea that he'd discovered anything new. To the end of his life he thought he'd been in Asia.
