Amaqiniso athakazelisayo ngoMagellan Yithuba elihle lokufunda kabanzi ngamatilosi amakhulu. Wayengumholi wohambo lokuqala emlandweni lokuhamba emhlabeni jikelele. Phakathi nohambo lwakhe, wakwazi ukuthola lo mkhawulo, namuhla obizwa ngegama lakhe.

- Igama leMagellan lingenye yemigodi eseNyangeni (bona amaqiniso athakazelisayo ngeNyanga), umkhumbi-mkhathi (1990) kanye nemithala emi-2 - Amafu amakhulu nelincane iMagellanic.
- UMagellan ungumbonisi weziQhingi zasePhilippine.

- Iqembu eliqukethe imikhumbi emi-5 lisuka ohambweni oludumile. Kuyaphawuleka ukuthi uMagellan akazange atshele abasebenzi bakhe ngomzila wokuhamba ngomkhumbi, okwakudala ukuthi ngezikhathi ezithile bangagculiseki phakathi kwamatilosi.
- Umbhali wegama leziqhingi zaseTierra del Fuego futhi kwakunguMagellan, owacabanga ukuthi imililo yabomdabu bendawo yayiyizintaba-mlilo.
- Ungahle ungazi, kepha uMagellan uqobo akakwazanga ukuzungeza umhlaba, njengoba wabulawa ePhilippines.

Ngendlela, emikhunjini emi-5 kuphela owahamba ngomkhumbi uye ogwini lwaseSpain.
