Sebastian Cabot (explorer)
Sebastian Cabot (Italian and Venetian: ''Sebastiano Caboto'', Spanish: ''Sebastián Caboto'', ''Gaboto'' or ''Cabot''; c. 1474 – c. December 1557) was an Italian explorer, likely born in the Venetian Republic. He was the son of Italian explorer John Cabot (Giovanni Caboto) and his Venetian wife Mattea.
After his father's death, Cabot conducted his own voyages of discovery, seeking the Northwest Passage through North America for England. He later sailed for Spain, traveling to South America, where he explored the Rio de la Plata and established two new forts.
==Early life and education==
Accounts differ as to Sebastiano Caboto's (later known as Sebastian Cabot in England) place and date of birth. Sebastian told Englishman Richard Eden that he was born in 1474 in Bristol as the son of John Cabot, a Venetian citizen credited with Genoese or Gaetan origins by birth, and of Mattea Caboto, also Venetian. He was taken back to Venice with his parents at four years of age. At another time, he told the Venetian ambassador at the court of Charles V, Gasparo Contarini, who noted it in his diary, that he was Venetian, educated in England. His father had been living in Venice from 1461, as he received citizenship in 1476, which required 15 years' residency. The Caboto family moved to England in 1495 if not before.
Sebastian and his two brothers Ludovico and Santo, older and younger, respectively, were included by name with their father in the royal letters patent from King Henry VII of March 1496 authorizing their father's expeditions across the Atlantic.〔(O. Hartig, "John and Sebastian Cabot" ), ''The Catholic Encyclopedia'' (New Advent, 1908), accessed 24 April 2015〕 They are believed to have still been minors and were not mentioned in the 1498 patent their father also received.〔(R.A. Skelton, "CABOT, Sebastian" ), ''Dictionary of Canadian Biography Online,'' 1966-2015〕 John Cabot sailed from Bristol on the small ship ''Matthew,'' reached the coast of a "New Found Land" on June 24, 1497. Historians have differed as to where Cabot landed, but two likely locations often suggested are Newfoundland and Nova Scotia.
