Bartolomeu Dias ((:baɾtuluˈmew ˈdi.ɐʃ); Anglicized: Bartholomew Diaz; c. 1451 – 29 May 1500〔''The Anonymous Narrative'', p. 61.〕), a nobleman of the Portuguese royal household, was a Portuguese explorer. He sailed around the southernmost tip of Africa in 1488, reaching the Indian Ocean from the Atlantic, the first European known to have done so. ==Purposes of the Dias expedition== Bartolomeu Dias was a Knight of the royal court, superintendent of the royal warehouses, and sailing-master of the man-of-war, ''São Cristóvão'' (Saint Christopher). King John II of Portugal appointed him, on 10 October 1487, to head an expedition to sail around the southern tip of Africa in the hope of finding a trade route to India. Dias was also charged with searching for the lands ruled by Prester John, who was a fabled Christian priest and ruler.
