What cultural interactions did Bartholomew encounter?

Bartholomew, likely referring to Bartholomew Diaz or Bartholomew Columbus, encountered a variety of cultural interactions during his expeditions. Diaz, as one of the first Europeans to sail around the Cape of Good Hope, interacted with African coastal tribes, learning about their customs and trade practices. Columbus's brother, Bartholomew, engaged with indigenous peoples in the Americas, which included exchanges of goods and ideas, albeit often marred by conflict and misunderstanding. These interactions significantly influenced European views of the world and facilitated the exchange of cultures, goods, and technologies.
