[QUOTE]Originally posted by One Third African: [QB] [IMG]https://i1.wp.com/brandonpilchersart.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Estevanico-the-Moorish-Explorer-of-America-scaled.jpg?fit=740%2C925[/IMG] Mustafa Azemmouri (1500-1539 AD), alternatively known as Estevanico, was an enslaved “Moorish” man from Morocco who is remarkable for being one of the first enslaved individuals of African descent to have stepped on North American soil. In 1527, he came along on a Spanish expedition of conquest that brought him from Florida through Texas all the way to northern Mexico. It was a dangerous venture, with treacherous terrain and conflict with various Native American groups taking their toll on the expeditioners until only Estevanico and three other men were left to complete the journey. On another expedition that lead him to New Mexico, Estevanico died during a confrontation with the local Zuni people, who may have confused him with a malevolent magical being in their religion called the Chaikwana.
