The First Settlement of
America
North and South America were the last areas of the
world to be occupied
First American settlers came from Northwest Asia
and Siberia
First groups begin to cross land bridge around 15,000
years ago
Crossed in pursuit of herds and tribes were hunter-
gathers
Over the next few thousand the migrants began to
spread out across the continents

Europe was a backwater of the known world before
1500
Exploration was limited during the Middle Ages
with Marco Polo being the main exception

Constantinople for eastern goods
Europe as a result became obsessed with the goods
from China and southeast Asia
The Trade was interrupted with the fall of
Constantinople in 1453 to the Turks
Europe before 1500

Europe and the Atlantic
Historically the Mediterranean
had been the main focus of trade
for Europe
During the 15th Century we see
the trade routes shift to the
Atlantic
To deal with these new routes
merchants develop new ships
The Mediterranean favored
shallow triangular sailed ships
Atlantic required durable ships
with square sales
Compromise was reached in the
Caravel design
The Caravel becomes the main
ship for both explores and
merchants
