    De Soto made landfall in La Florida near present-day Tampa.

    Explanation:

    In May 1539, with between 600 and 700 men, twenty-four priests, nine ships, and 220 horses, he reached the west coast of Florida, which would become Bradenton, south of Tampa, Florida. Hernando de Soto's goal was to colonize the area, preferably looking for a city like Cuzco or Mexico City. Therefore, he brought several tons of equipment distributed in tools, weapons, cannons, dogs, and pigs. In addition to the sailors, the ships brought priests, blacksmiths, craftsmen, engineers, farmers and merchants. Few of them had traveled outside of Spain before, or worse, outside their villages.
