Description
Text engraving showing a bay on the Island of Ternate, an island in the Maluku Islands (Moluccas) of eastern Indonesia. Above the map a lettered key (A-E).

Finally reaching an accord, they sailed to Bali and returned to Texel in August 1597, with only eighty-nine of the crew left alive. Because of the increased price of pepper, the voyage was able to turn a profit, despite returning with a small cargo.
