The Vivaldi Brothers and the first attempt to sail from Europe to India via the Cape Route
In 1291, two Genoese brothers, Vandino and Ugolino Vivaldi, led the first known attempt to sail from Europe to India by going around the southern tip of Africa. The attempt - which failed - would generate rumors and speculation for hundreds of years.
