The adventure began not to discover a new continent, but to find a new safe route to the Pacific Ocean. His first stop was in the Canary Islands, specifically, in La Gomera in order to collect more supplies and fix the damages that the nao could have, built with wood from Cantabria. In October 12th, after several crew riots a few day, the cabin boy Rodrigo de Triana spotted land: first they arrived at Guanahani Island, which they called San Salvador, in the Bahamas archipelago, until it reached another one that he named La Española -currently, Haiti-, which did bring Santa Maria "tomb". During the night of December 24th, the nao remained stranded because of a sandbank due to a malpractice of the lookout man. The coral reefs destroyed the hull of the boat, the crew had to climb on La Niña. In this sense, it was rumored that Columbus was interested in that sinking to return since they had not found gold in bulk, trying to deceive the Catholic Kings in order to return to Castile. Finally, with the materials that were left of the sinister Santa Maria nao, they lifted the Christmas Fort with palisade, the first European in the New Continent.
It seems that the Indians did it to punish them for having stolen their food and their women. Surprisingly for the time, Columbus did not penalize the natives leader, but allowed other abuses, while Isabel La Católica forbade the punishments to be carried out, but she was not given much attention.
