Juan Cabrero

Juan Cabrero (1442–1512) was the High Chamberlain and counselor of King Ferdinand the Catholic, Commander and one of the Thirteen of St James Order, and a professional combatant during the Granada War in Spain. High Chamberlain Cabrero is considered an important figure in the History of the 1st Voyage of Christopher Columbus, for he is referred to by Christopher Columbus along with Diego de Deza as the cause of the acceptance of his Indies Enterprise in 1492 by the Catholic Monarchs. Cabrero's pivotal support is also confirmed by Diego Columbus and King Ferdinand.
