科罗纳多CORONADO

1541年6月1日，科罗纳多带着他挑选的30人跟随另一个现在看来更可信的西库野(佩科斯)奴隶前往应许之地奎维拉。为此，科罗纳多还释放了他家乡的基维拉土著人。
6/1/1541, Coronado with his 30 chosen men followed the other now more believable Cicuye (Pecos) slave to the promised land of Quivira. For this service, Coronado released the Quivira native in his home land.

往北到基维拉的长途跋涉使探险队越过金线到达阿肯色河，绕过大拐弯，一直向东到达今天的里昂和堪萨斯州林兹堡之间的某个地方。按照指南针向北行进，这趟旅程大约花了42天。他们在那里待了25天以后，开始返回阿尔坎福。
The trek north to Quivira took the expedition over the gold line to the Arkansas River, around its big bend on up to as far east as somewhere between present day Lyons and Lindsborg, Kansas. Traveling north by the compass needle, this ride took approx 42 days. They spent 25 days in the area before starting back to Alcanfor.

尽管形势逆转，但是地图上的金色线代表了激励部队前进的黄金希望。
The map line is gold for the golden hope that propelled the troops, though once again, things turned out differently.
