Enrique of Malacca

بیوگرافی

Enrique of Malacca was a Malay member of the Magellan expedition who is believed to have completed the first circumnavigation of the world from 1519–1522. Enrique was Ferdinand Magellan's personal slave and interpreter, and outlived most members of the expedition including Magellan himself, but was not among the 18 survivors who returned to Spain in September 1522, three years after they left. About a year earlier, he was left behind in Cebu in what would become the Philippines, and his final fate is unknown.
