"Baltasar Maldonado, also written as Baltazar Maldonado, (c.1510, Salamanca, Castile \u2013 1558, Santaf\u00E9 de Bogot\u00E1, New Kingdom of Granada) was a Spanish conquistador who first served under Gonzalo Jim\u00E9nez de Quesada, and later in the army of Hern\u00E1n P\u00E9rez de Quesada in the Spanish conquest of the Muisca. In 1539, Maldonado defeated the last ruling Cacique (chieftain) of the Muisca, Saymoso (called \"Tundama\" by the Spaniards). Maldonado took part in a quest for El Dorado led by Hern\u00E1n P\u00E9rez de Quesada in the southern regions of present-day Colombia. After this failed expedition, Maldonado went to Popay\u00E1n and Cali and traveled back to Santaf\u00E9 de Bogot\u00E1, the capital of the New Kingdom of Granada where he died in 1552. The adventures of Maldonado during the first half of the 16th century have been described by scholars Juan de Castellanos, and Juan Rodr\u00EDguez Freyle in his work El Carnero."@en . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
