He later attempted the first European settlement in the continental US in 1521. He took farmers, artisans, priests and animals to the area now known as Charlotte Harbor, Florida. They were attacked by the Calusa Indians and he was mortally wounded. The first European settlement continually populated in what is now the United States is St. Augustine in Florida.
