	Antonio de Herrera y Tordesillas - LoveToKnow 1911
		ANTONIO DE HERRERA Y TORDESILLAS (1549-1625), Spanish historian, was born at Cuellar, in the province of Segovia in Spain.
		Placed thus in the enjoyment of an ample salary, Herrera devoted the rest of his life to the pursuit of literature, retaining his offices until the reign of Philip IV., by whom he was appointed secretary of state very shortly before his death, which took place at Madrid on the 29th of March 1625.
		Of Herrera's writings, the most valuable is his Historia general de los hechos de los Castellanos en las islas y tierra firme del Mar Oceano (Madrid, 1601-1615, 4 vols.), a work which relates the history of the Spanish-American colonies from 1492 to 1554.

		A professional man of letters, Antonio de Herrera y Tordesillas of Castile was born in 1549, educated in Italy in the traditions of Italian humanism, a secretary of viceroys, historian and translator.
		Herrera was stereotypically Eurocentric and imperialist in outlook, but the description of people and cultures as well as the land itself are from eyewitness accounts of sometimes educated and sensitive observers.
		Herrera originally ended his history at 1554 when Peru was pacified; what happened later (which was little) he had already included in his history of the reign of Phillip II.

		Ponce de León at the Fountain of YouthThe story continues that Juan Ponce de León heard of the fountain from the natives of Puerto Rico when he conquered the island.
		While Ponce de León may well have heard of the Fountain and believed in it, his name was not associated with the legend in writing until after his death.
		It is Herrera who makes that connection definite in the romanticized version of Fontaneda's story included in his Historia general de los hechos de los Castellanos en las islas y tierra firme del Mar Oceano.

		His meritorious action in the conquest caused his rapid rise among his compatriots, and in 1522 and 1523 he accompanied Francisco de Orozco in the conquest of Oaxaca, and Pedro de Alvarado in the conquest of Guatemala as a captain and commander of crossbowmen.
		Be that as it may, the single mention by Herrera that Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo was Portuguese has served as the sole cornerstone upon which historians have based their conclusions concerning his nationality, nations have built monuments, and a multitude of place names have been given.
		The single statement by Herrera versus contemporary documentation and in light of the norms of national identity at the time would appear to have the same force had he stated that Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo was Italian or French.
