2. Voyage of Lucas Vasquez de Ayllon*[Arredondo note*: Cardenas, Ensayo Cronoldgico, Decada 1*. [ff. 4-9.]: It is common knowledge that in the year 1520 Lucas Vasquez de Ayllon, judge of the Audiencia of Santo Domingo, having been driven by a storm to the coast of Florida, explored all those regions. He landed several times in different places, especially in the provinces of Chicora [Arredondo note t: Territory in which South Carolina, or Charleston, is now situated, in 33°, from which Lucas Vasquez carried away by trickery one hundred and thirty Indians, taking them to work in the mines of Santo Domingo, to the great indignation of Chief Datha and his people.] and Orista, to which district he gave the name of Santa Elena, 5. [Bolton note: Herrera attributes the naming of Santa Elena to one of Ayllon's pilots. He says: "The licentiate Aillon equipped three ships and with them reached the Point of Santa Elena, one hundred leagues to the north of Florida. There was a town there named Orizta, but the Spaniards called it Chicora, because they never could help distorting the words a little. Another place there named Guale they called Gualdape. In this region is the River Jordan, which was named by the pilot of a ship who discovered it, who also named the Point of Santa Elena, which was discovered on that Saint's day." (Herrera, Historic General, Dec. Ill, Lib. VII, pp. 241-242.)] on account of having discovered it on that saint's day.* [Arredondo note*: This is the place selected by Jean Ribaut for the first settlement made by him under the name of Carolina, in honor of Charles IX, King of France, which he afterward totally abandoned; and here, about a league within the mouth, in 32° 30', Pedro Menendez Marques established the settlement of Santa Elena and the presidio of San Felipe.] Afterward he went to Spain and claimed as a reward the right to conquer and settle Chicora, making a report on the country which he had examined from 32° to 37° north latitude, its situation and products, and the customs of the natives.
