Corte-Real was granted the island of São Jorge in the Azores in 1472, a fact that anchors the timeline of his activities.
It is known that Corte-Real was originally granted the island of São Jorge in the archipelago of the Azores in 1472. He held this grant until 1474. This date is often cited in relation to the disputed 1472 discovery claim, though the voyage evidence points more strongly to 1473.
