Francisco Pizarro was born in 1478 and died in 1541.

He explored for Peru and just guess what he did, of course he discovered it. Then after invading half of Peru and stealing treasures he headed south east of Peru and that was Cajamarca. He arrived in Cajamarca in 1533.

He set out on his voyage for treasures and jewels, but he also wanted to take over land.

He is"claimed to fame" because, well first of all he was a bad person, he killed thousands of men in his crew including another famous explorer Hernando De Soto. And Pizarro founded Lima( witch he called, ciudad de los reyers, witch means city of the kings.
