Question

All of the following are examples of early Spanish contact with the United States except

the establishment of St. Augustine

Francisco Vázquez de Coronado’s search for the seven cities of Cibola

the establishment of Jamestown

Juan Ponce de León’s discovery of Florida

Answer 1

The establishment of Jamestown is not an example of early Spanish contact with the United States. Jamestown was established by the English in 1607 as the first permanent English settlement in North America. In contrast, St. Augustine was established by the Spanish in 1565, and the expeditions by Francisco Vázquez de Coronado and Juan Ponce de León were also conducted by the Spanish in the 16th century.
