Magalhães
Magalhães (Ferdinand Magellan, c. 1480–1521) was a Portuguese explorer who led the first expedition to circumnavigate the globe, sailing through the strait at the southern tip of South America that now bears his name. Though Magellan himself was killed in the Philippines in 1521, his expedition completed the first round-the-world voyage, proving the Earth could be circumnavigated by sea.
