In 1621, only ten years after the foundation of Belém, the Portuguese Explorer Pedro Teixeira along with Father Cristovão, 26 soldiers and many Indians set off to explore the Amazon River. They eventually found a Tupuliçus Indian settlement near the mouth of the Tapajós River and made port there. The expedition was a success since the Indians already had contact with white man, mainly Spanish explorers who had already been to the settlement.
