Who came up with the idea of building the waterway?
The dream of creating a canal through the Isthmus of Panama which would unite the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, dates back to the 16th century.
The idea could have been born when Vasco Nuñez de Balboa crossed the isthmus in 1513 and discovered that only a narrow stretch separated the oceans. The Emperor Charles V, who developed the notion that a natural path was not available, began the efforts to build a passageway.
