The Banda Islands were one of two islands groups comprising the fabled ‘Spice Islands’ of the East Indies.
Banda Islands
The Banda Islands were one of two islands groups comprising the fabled ‘Spice Islands’ of the East Indies. Banda was the original and only source of the once precious spices, nutmeg and mace, whose trade had a significant impact on global history up to the 19th century, but particularly in the 15th-19th centuries. It was the ‘Spice Islands’ that Christopher Columbus was seeking when, under the sponsorship of the King and Queen of Spain, he sailed westward across the Atlantic. He discovered that his westward rout to the Spice Islands was blocked by the Americas. It remained for the Portuguese to be the first European explorers to reach Banda after the long route around Africa and eastward across the Indian Ocean.
