Bento de Góis
Bento de Góis (1562, Vila Franca do Campo, Azores, Portugal - 11 April 1607, Suzhou, Gansu, China), was a Portuguese Jesuit Brother, Missionary and explorer. His name is commonly given in English as Bento de Goes〔"Bento de Goes", in: 〕〔()〕 or Bento de Goës;〔Gallagher (trans.) (1953), p. 499-500.〕 in the past, it has also been Anglicized as Benedict Goës.〔Henry Yule (1866)〕
He is mainly remembered as the first known European to travel overland from India to China, via Afghanistan and the Pamirs. Inspired by controversies among the Jesuits as to whether the Cathay of Marco Polo's stories is the same country as China, his expedition
conclusively proved that the two countries are one and the same, and, according to Henry Yule, made "''Cathay''... finally disappear from view, leaving ''China'' only in the mouths and minds of men".〔Henry Yule (1866), p. 530.〕
