Page "Miguel López de Legazpi" Paragraph 29

During his last years, López de Legazpi wrote several letters to Philip II of Spain about his journey to the East Indies, and the conquest he had achieved.

These were collectively known as the " Cartas al Rey Don Felipe II: sobre la expedicion, conquistas y progresos de las islas Felipinas " ( Letters to the King Lord Philip II: on the expedition, conquests and progress of the Philippine Islands ).

The letters are still preserved today at the General Archive of the Indies in Seville, Spain.
