• Samenvatting
  Around 1585 Joris van Spilbergen fled from his hometown Antwerp to the province of Zeeland and was soon employed by the wealthy trader DeMoucheron. In his service he acquired increasingly important assignments on DeMoucheron's fleet. Finally, in 1614 he was requested by the VOC to undertake a voyage to the 'Spice Islands' via Strait Magellan. However, Van Spilbergen wrongly never was appropriately rewarded for his skill, his perseverance and his achievements.
