The Ajacán Mission (Spanish pronunciation: [axaˈkan]) (also Axaca, Axacam, Iacan, Jacán, Xacan) was a Spanish attempt in 1570 to establish a Jesuit mission in the vicinity of the Virginia Peninsula to bring Christianity to the Virginia Indians. The effort to found St. Mary's Mission predated the founding of the English settlement at Jamestown, Virginia, by about 36 years. In February 1571, the entire party was massacred by Indians except for Alonso de Olmos. The following year, a Spanish party from Florida went to the area, rescued Alonso, and killed an estimated 20 Indians.

  • La Misión de Ajacán (también Axaca, Axacam, Iacan, Jacán, Xacan o Jacan) fue un intento español de establecer una misión jesuita en las cercanías de la península de Virginia para llevar el cristianismo a los nativos americanos en 1570.​ El esfuerzo por fundar la Misión de Santa María fue anterior a la fundación del asentamiento inglés de Jamestown (Virginia), por unos 36 años. En febrero de 1571, todo el grupo fue masacrado por los nativos americanos excepto Alonso de Olmos. Al año siguiente, un grupo de españoles de Florida fue a la zona, rescató a Alonso y mató a unos 20 indígenas. (es)
