This debate goes on & on. Colombus was probably not the 1st, but he had the better press agent working for him; and the USA is basically of European background.
Another interesting fact - A few very ancient Chinese villages have been found on the western coast of Mexico. These were fishing/sea-trading encampments. Archeologists just DON'T want to even discuss these...lol.

Little is known of the voyages because the fleet's records were destroyed shortly after it returned. Don't you just hate it when that happens. I'm sure Thongor of Atlantis was equally annoyed when the records of his circumnavigation in 10,500 BC got lost.
