I'm just looking for bushels of gold and a mere 1.5 million would keep me happy
You can say that again, Sal

That's easy for you to say, Geomyidae. heheWe would begin by calling them by their real name: Tawantinsuyu

Yep.You can say that again, Sal![]()
Hernando De Soto was one of the commanders of the 1532 Expedition which conquored the Inca empire.
You are having a rather slow morning ,![]()
I think you're having trouble yourself.
What part of "cities with gold in them" and De Soto (as well as others) searching for the "Cities of Gold"
The Seven Cities of Cibola | See the Southwest
Better luck next time!
DeSoto was long dead by the tiem Coronado set out for Cibola.
Go back to sleep . lil one. Trouble thyself no more.....

So he didn't find the Cities of Gold after all!
Thanks for playing!
Coronado 1510-1554
De Soto 1497-1542
Coronado's Expedition 1540
De Soto's Expedition 1541
That was too easy.
Time for you to brush up a bit before you take me on... lil one. lmao@u
The Spanish were able to concentrate the then existing instruments of European power against the Aztecs and Incas because they were centralized political systems susceptible to decapitation. The Spanish could not bring all of the then existing instruments of Western power against the First Peoples of Florida because they were not centralized in the same way as the Aztecs, Incas, and Mound Builders.
It would take Andrew Jackson, who defeated the British at the Battle of New Orleans, to subjugate the Seminoles and other indigenous peoples of Florida. Andrew Jackson was able to bring the by then much superior instruments of western power to bear against the Indians.
He found cities of gold? lmao
You can't be serious. Finding some gold in cities was NOT what De Soto was looking for.
Check your history... thoroughly.
Coronado moved North AFTER THE TIGUEX WAR - 1542.
I remain - as they say- amazed......................

What if De Soto found cities of gold?

You remain... as they say... wrong!

P.S. Moving goal posts will not save you in here.

not according to the link you provided... And not according to history.
Again... From your link...
Coronado set out from compostela on february 23, 1540, at the head of a large expedition composed of about 400 european men-at-arms (mostly spaniards), 1,300 to 2,000 mexican indian allies, four franciscan monks (the most notable of whom were juan de padilla and the newly appointed provincial superior of the franciscan order in the new world, marcos de niza), and several slaves, both natives and africans.
Ouch! That must hurt! Lol
even with those facts... De soto dies in 1542 and look what you posted earlier.
You lose hunboldt... Now you are just making yourself a bigger fool in here by defending what is indefensible.
go back to sleep lil 'un - trouble thyself no more
