antonio pigafetta

Antonio Pigafetta (ca.1491-ca1534), was an Italian Navigator born in Vicenza. He paid a large sum of money to accompany and assist Ferdinand Magellan and his crew on their trip around the world. He kept an accurate journal of the trip, which later assisted him in translating the foreign Philippine language. Of some 260 men who set out with Magellan, Pigafetta was one of only 18 who returned to Spain having completed the circumnavigation. His journal is the source for most of what we know about the voyage.
