Indian Treasures: Encyclopedia II - Pedro Menéndez de Avilés - Military

Don Pedro is credited as the Spanish leader who first surveyed and authorized the building of the royal fortresses at major Caribbean ports. He was appointed Captain-General of the Armada de la Carrera in 1554 when he sailed out with the Indies fleet and brought it back safely to Spain.

Indian Treasures: Encyclopedia II - Zuytdorp - Current theory

Something, perhaps a violent storm, occurred and the Zuytdorp was wrecked on a desolate section of the Western Australian coast. Survivors scrambled ashore and camped near the wreck site. At this stage, Australia had no colonies to which to turn for help, so they built huge bonfires from the wreckage to signal to fellow trading ships that would pass within sight of the coast. But fires seen in the vicinity tended to be dismissed as "native fires". Eventually the survivors may have traded with ...

Indian Treasures: Encyclopedia II - Allodial title - Limited allodial title

Two states, Nevada and Texas, have created limited allodial title provisions in order to protect property owners from the burden of highly increased property tax burdens which often occur when unincorporated land becomes part of a town or city. Nevada allows persons who own and live in single family residences to obtain allodial title on land they own if the land is free of mortgage and tax arrears. Nevada accepts a payment based on an actuarial calculation of the present value of the future property taxes payable given the age of the ...

Indian Treasures: Encyclopedia II - William Kidd - Turning pirate

Finally, under pressure from his men, and perhaps in shock over what he had done, Kidd finally made the fatal decision of turning pirate. He started taking any vessels which were not English; Dutch, Moorish, Indian, Portuguese, French; no one was safe from the onslaught. As the voyage progressed Kidd’s actions became increasingly more like those of a pirate than an agent of the English King. Acts of savagery on Kidd’s part were reported by escaped prisoners, who told of being hoisted u ...

Indian Treasures: Encyclopedia II - Francisco Hernández de Córdoba discoverer of Yucatán - Origin of Hernández's expedition: Slave-hunting or exploration?

Bernal Díaz del Castillo is the chronicler who gives the most detail about the voyage of Hernández de Córdoba; his is also the only first-person account by someone who was present for the entire process. Also, Bernal declares in his chronicle that he had been himself a promoter of the project, together with another hundred or so Spaniards who said they had to "occupy themselves".

Indian Treasures: Encyclopedia II - History of India - The British Raj

The British, established a foothold in Bengal when the British soldiers, funded by the East India Company, and led by Robert Clive, defeated Nawab Siraj Ud Daulah in the Battle of Plassey in 1757 and plundered the Bengali treasure. Bengal became a protectorate, and then directly went under the rule of East India Company. The British East India Company monopolized the trade of Bengal. The Bengali craftsmen were inevitably fixed at foreign posts of the Company, where they were obliged to render their labor at minimal compensation while their c ...

Indian Treasures: Encyclopedia II - Douglas County Oregon - History

The area originally was inhabited by the Umpqua Indians, who belonged to the Chinook tribe. Following the Rogue River Indian War in 1856, all remaining natives were moved by the government to the Grand Ronde Indian Reservation. Douglas County was created on January 7, 1852, from the portion of Umpqua County which lay east of the Coast Range summit. In 1856 the Camas Valley was annexed to Douglas County from Coos County. In 1862, the rest of Umpqua county was absorbed into Douglas County, some say due to the loss of population followin ...

Indian Treasures: Encyclopedia II - Mughal Empire - Reign of Aurangzeb and decline of empire

The last of the great Mughals was Aurangzeb. During his fifty-year reign, the empire reached its greatest physical size but also showed unmistakable signs of decline. The bureaucracy had grown corrupt; the huge army used outdated weaponry and tactics. Aurangzeb restored Mughal military dominance and expanded power southward, at least for a while. Aurangzeb was involved in a series of protracted wars: against the Pathans in Afghanistan, the sultans of Bijapur and Golkonda in the Deccan, the Marathas in Maharashtra and the Ahoms in Assam. Peas ...

Indian Treasures: Encyclopedia II - William Kidd - Hunting for pirates

In September of 1696, Kidd finally set sail again. However, more bad luck struck and a third of his crew soon perished due to the uncontrolled spread of cholera. To make matters worse, the brand-new ship developed many leaks. According to Gilbert, after taking a single French ship (which was legal under his commission) on the first leg of his voyage, he proceeded eastward to Madagascar but was not able to find pirates to take in that vicinity. Kidd then sailed to the Malabar Coast. During this time Kidd never attacked a single richly-laden I ...

History of India - Mughal Empire. In 1526, Babur, a Timurid descendant of Timur, swept across the Khyber Pass and established the Mughal Empire, which lasted for over 200 years. The Mughal Dynasty ruled most of the Indian subcontinent by 1600; it went into a slow decline after 1707 and was finally defeated during the Indian rebellion of 1857.

When Kidd returned to New York City, he learned that he was a wanted pirate, and that several English men-of-war were searching for him. The governor (an investor) was away in Boston, Massachusetts.
