Portugal, the western-most European country, played important role in  Western Age of Discovery and Exploration. Under the guidance of Prince Henry the Navigator, Portugal played the key role throughout the fifteenth century in exploring the route to Asia by navigating south around Africa.

The invention of a common route nearby Cape Bojador considered as the opening of the Portuguese investigation of Africa. They voyaged about 30 leagues (144 km), or even 50 leagues (240 km)  of south land of Cape Bojador and entered the African coast.

In 1488, Portuguese navigator Bartolomeu Dias (c. 1450-1500) became the first European sailor to curl the southerly tip of Africa, unlocking the gateway for a sea route from Europe to Asia.

one way archaeology us understand the past is through the material objects it finds, allowing us to know what was being used, and when. for example a dig recently found a flute, believed to be the oldest musical instrument found to date.

i hope this
