Amerigo Vespucci didnt name America Martin Waldseemuller did in 1507 after America was named Amerigo died shortly after in 1512
The German mapmaker who named the New World after Amerigo Vespucci is Martin Waldseemüller. He published a world map in 1507 that named the landmass "America" in honor of Vespucci's discoveries in the region.
Amerigo Vespucci Yet he was Italian not German. ___ I think the mapmaker was German (Martin Waldseemuller), not the man he named the continent after. the first answer was correct. i know cuz im in fifth grade.
Amerigo did claim he landed on the American mainland before Columbus. In 1507 a German geographer named Martin Waldseemuller accepted the claim and in a book he published in 1507 he named the new land "America."
Amerigo Vespucci is credited with naming the continent "America" after himself, based on his observations during his explorations of the New World in the late 15th century. Though he was not a mapmaker himself, cartographers began using the name in his honor to refer to the newly discovered landmass.
No, he didn't. Columbus landed in the New World in 1492, a few years before Vespucci, but because of bad word of mouth during this time, a cartographer, Martin Waldseemuller, mistakenly thought Vespucci had landed in the New World before Christopher Columbus after an account of Vespucci's 1497 expedition was published. Waldseemuller maned the continent America after him.
Yes, today April 25 is a milestone in the rise of modern Earth science for understanding "Who Named Earth?" Today, in 1507 at Ville St. Die France, the cartographer Martin Waldseemuller print the first projection of our planet to include the continents. The named America first appeared. Who Named America? marks the milestone of humanity's understanding of planet earth in the rise of science, geography and humanities. First, for April World Georgraphy Month, begin by understanding the word "earth", to recognize the Latin origin "Terra" for "dirt" or "land" ... The 1507 Waldseemuller globe map is the first to depict the planet using the mathematical calculation of Amerigo Vespucci. The real scientific value is how his voyage(s) followed along the equator. As a trained astronomer, this exploration resulted in developing the mathematical formula for measuring the distance between planets, and thus the calculation of "la terra" circumference - the cornerstone of today's 21st Century projection - 500 years later. The Waldseemuller globe map energized the imaginations of the 15th Century. Again, for the 21st Century, for Earth Day, celebrate by downloading the Waldseemuller globe map that named America to cut and shape into a ball of our planet. The map is again engaging the public to ask Who Named America? as a learning tool, and again, open local window to worldwide learning for the America500 Birthday Worldwide Extravaganza 2007-12.

aprox 6 voyages starting in 1478 and ending 1505 befor he became Mayor of Spain dying 4 years later first= 1478 second= 1494 (or 1499 ?) third= 1501 fourth= 1503 5th and 6th= 1505 in 1507 German mapmaker Martin Waldseemuller printed the first map that used the name America for the new world because Vespucci sugested that Columbas never really did sail to the indies but discovered a whole new world. Martin the German Geographer suggested that since he was the first to realize it, America was to be named after Amerigo "America"
