Best Answer

because of Henry Hudson

==================

lol -- John Cabot was on the scene more than a hundred years before Henry Hudson.

Cabot, like Columbus, was trying to reach the Orient by sailing westward across the Atlantic, rather than sailing around the Horn of Africa and across the Indian ocean. Europeans were unaware of the existence of the continents of North and South America in 1492 (Columbus) and 1497 (Cabot).
