Who killed Hernan Cortes?
Hernan Cortes died in Seville (or Sevilla) Spain in 1547. If I remember correctly, he died in a monastery there, the same one from which Cristopher Columbus sailed. Presumably he died of natural causes or illness. I have not read anything about his death that would indicate his being killed or murdered, Further research on his life and death can be found in a book entitled CONQUEST, which I believe is written by Sir Hugh Thomas (not sure of the last name).
