1492 - While CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS SLEPT aboard the "Santa Maria", Roderigo de Triano spotted the Bahamian Island of Guanahani from up in the crow's nest of the "Pinta". Columbus renamed the island San Salvador. The King and Queen of Spain had promised a reward to the first person that spotted land. Young Roderigo spotted the land, but Columbus collected the reward. He told Roderigo the "land" he saw was probably a cloud!
