Francisco Coronado was a Spanish explorer and conquistador known for his expeditions in the 16th century, particularly his quest for the legendary Seven Cities of Gold. He led an expedition from Mexico into the southwestern United States, exploring parts of present-day Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, and Kansas. Coronado's journey, which took place between 1540 and 1542, significantly contributed to European knowledge of the region, despite ultimately failing to find the riches he sought. His explorations helped pave the way for future Spanish colonization in North America.
