		In 1542-43, Portuguese-born João Rodrigues Cabrilho and his chief pilot Bartolomé Ferrelo, who may have been Portuguese, were the first Europeans to explore the coast of the present state of California.
		Sailing for Spain, Cabrilho left in June of 1542 from Navidad on the west coast of Mexico and proceeded north.
		Cabrilho's and Ferrelo's voyages are indicated by light reddish brown and light blue on this reconstructed map compiled by the nineteenth-century German historical geographer Johann Georg Kohl.

	Journal of San Diego History
		The nationality of Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo (João Rodrigues Cabrilho as he is called in Portuguese) has usually been readily accepted as having been Portuguese; however, an analysis of sixteenth and seventeenth century manuscripts and imprints, as well as modern works, tends to indicate the contrary.
		Stating that the possession of California was taken by "João Rodrigues Cabrilho" in Portuguese, and quoting the act of possession in that language, he cited as his source for such statements Buckingham Smith, Colección de varios documentos para la historia de la Florida y tierras adyacentes.
		For Alves de Alzevedo the use of "João Rodrigues Cabrilho" was not sufficient, for he refers to the later explorer of California, Sebastián Vizcaíno, as "Viscainho!"

		The first European to explore parts of the coast was the Portuguese João Rodrigues Cabrilho in 1542.
		The first to explore the entire coast and claim possession of it was Francis Drake in 1579.
		The state is generally liberal-leaning, technologically and culturally savvy, and a world center of engineering businesses, the film and television industry and, as mentioned above, American agricultural production.

		In the history of man’s exploration Dighton Rock can be considered a stepping stone in our determination to plot and explore the mysteries of the uncharted areas of outer space.
		João Rodrigues Cabrilho, on September 28, 1542, set foot at San Diego, and declared in Portuguese that he was “taking possession of this land, these waters, and this harbor.” The heart of California, San Francisco Bay, was given its name by the Portuguese, Sebastião Sermenho.
		In gratitude to the Portuguese navigators, the people of the Golden State established, in San Diego (1913), the Cabrilho National Monument honoring the discoverer of California.

		Juan Gaetano (Caetano), to whom historians refer as the discoverer of the Hawaiian Islands in 1555, was probably Portuguese, who like many others in those days placed himself at the disposal of Spain when no chance of navigation was offered them in their own country, Portugal.
		Examples of these were found with many discoverers, namely, FernÃ£o de MagalhÃ£es (Ferdinand Magellan), and JoÃ£o Rodrigues Cabrilho.
		Gaetano, as pilot of a galleon commanded by a captain cruising under the flag of Spain, is believed to have chartered on maps the Hawaiian Islands.
