Note 55 — A JOURNAL OF THE FIRST VOYAGE OF VASCO DA GAMA IN 1497-99.

Ernest Georg Ravenstein translation

This is without the shadow of a doubt Mossel Bay (see plan on map II). It is also most probably the Bahia de los Vaqueiros of B. Dias, who certainly was here [see below]. Barros refers to it as being now called S. Braz. Its original name had thus been abandoned in favour of that bestowed by Vasco da Gama.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
