]]> Juan Sebastián Elcano was a Spanish sailor who completed the first round-the-world voyage in the Magellan-Elcano expedition, remaining at the head of the expedition after the death of Ferdinand Magellan. A native of the town of Guetaria, Elcano began his circumnavigation on 10 August 1519 and arrived in Sanlúcar de Barrameda on the Nao Victoria on 6 September 1522, after a three-year voyage. This document is contextualised a few years after his return, in 1526, the date on which he wrote his will, which can be consulted.
