I want to know the answer to the following question:
Which explorer did Cabot make a mistake similar to?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Cabot sailed in 1497, five years after the European discovery of America, and although he successfully made landfall on the coast of Newfoundland (mistakenly believing, like Christopher Columbus, that he had reached Asia), there was no attempt to found a colony.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
