Detailed explanation-1: -From 1529 to 1534, Cabeza de Vaca and these others lived a meagre life with the Karankawa Indians, in a state of semi-slavery and often separated from each other.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Karankawas’ entrance into the historical record in 1528 represents the first recorded contact between Europeans and American Indians in Texas. Two small boats carrying survivors of the ill-fated Spanish expedition of Pánfilo de Narváez landed on a small island to the west of Galveston Island.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cabeza de Vaca and his companions eventually arrived in Mexico City in 1536. They had traveled nearly 2, 400 miles over eight years in Texas and the Mexican borderlands. In 1542, he published an account of his adventures, the Relación, the first literary work with Texas as its subject.
