From what I have read, Columbus is one of those who were buried, and then dug up and reburied afterward somewhere else. Like Thomas Paine, who was buried three times. The result is that parts of the individual wind up in multiple graves. This is not news.

some DNA samples taken from bones that Spain says are the explorer's matched DNA from a body widely believed to be that of his brother, Diego

Lots of qualification here: "Spain says", "widly believed to be". So, it's conclusive. We have A Possible Maybe.

I'd just as soon they left it a mystery. That way, both places can claim tourist rights to the grave & none of it really matters because ole Chris is still dead.
