Francisco de Chicora was the baptismal name given to a Native American kidnapped from South Carolina in 1521. He and 70 others were taken from near the mouth of the Pee Dee River by Spanish Explorer Francisco Gordillo and slave trader Pedro de Quexos.
Francisco de Chicora was taken to Spain, where he met chronicler Peter Martyr and told him about the Chicora tribe. Martyr published this information as the "Testimony of Francisco de Chicora" within his larger collection of eyewitness accounts titled De Orbe Novo in 1530.
