The interactions among Native Americans, Europeans, and Africans were marked by a complex exchange of cultural practices, goods, and ideas, often driven by colonization and the transatlantic slave trade. Native Americans influenced European settlers through their knowledge of the land, agriculture, and trade, while Europeans introduced new technologies and goods. The arrival of Africans, initially as enslaved individuals, brought their own cultural traditions, which blended with Native and European practices, creating new cultural expressions in music, cuisine, and social structures. These interactions were often fraught with conflict, exploitation, and adaptation, shaping the diverse cultures that emerged in the Americas.

However, during his voyages to the New World, he mapped coastal areas and interacted with indigenous populations, contributing to European knowledge of the continent.
