dc.description.abstractPortuguese-Safavid contacts took place for the first time in history in 1507, when the Portuguese fleet under the command of Afonso de Albuquerque entered the Persian Gulf and tried to dominate the Kingdom of Hormuz. Thanks to its location and connection to the trade routes, Hormuz, which generated large revenues from customs duties on goods passing through the port, attracted the attention of the Portuguese, who wanted to build secure bases between the Indian and Iranian trade routes. The Portuguese subjugated the King of Hormuz, who paid a tribute to Shah Ismail, and started the construction of a fortress on the island of Hormuz, thus gaining military and commercial control of the Persian Gulf. Shah Ismail had no intention of giving up the revenue from Hormuz. He did not refrain from reminding his rights over Hormuz at every opportunity and threatened the Portuguese activities in the island militarily. Keeping diplomatic channels open, the Kingdom of Portugal tried to suppress the Shah's threats. Shah Ismail, struggling to recover from the defeat at Çaldıran, had no other choice but to establish good relations with the Portuguese. Although he did not receive the tribute from Hormuz, Shah Ismail, who chose the path of agreement, made the Portuguese accept the transportation of his people, especially Iranian merchants in the Persian Gulf, to the lands of Arabia by sea. In 1522, when the Portuguese authorities in Hormuz took control of the customs, the king of Hormuz revolted against the Portuguese. He offered the tribute to Shah Ismail and asked for his help against the Portuguese. However, after the sudden death of the King of Hormuz and the new king's agreement with the Portuguese, the help did not work and Shah Ismail prevented the caravans going to Hormuz. The King of Hormuz, who had lost his income, could not pay the tribute to the Portuguese. As a result, in order to save Hormuz from Safavid pressure, the Portuguese governor of India, D. Duarte de Menezes, sent Baltasar Pessoa to Shah Ismail's court as an envoy to negotiate. In this context, the translation from Portuguese of the section on Iran in the travelogue “Itinerario...” in which António Tenreiro, who accompanied the Portuguese envoy on his journey to Iran, wrote his observations, is important for us to see Portuguese-Safavid Relations and Iran through the eyes of a Portuguese traveler. © 2024 Ankara Haci Bayram Veli University.
