Cabot Voyages
Cabot Voyages refer to the exploratory journeys undertaken by John Cabot, an Italian navigator sailing for England in the late 15th century. In 1497, he famously mapped parts of North America, particularly around modern-day Canada, aiming to find a westward route to Asia. His voyages contributed to Europe's understanding of the Atlantic and laid the groundwork for future exploration and colonization of North America. These expeditions are considered significant milestones in the Age of Discovery, marking one of the earliest European efforts to explore the New World.
