I guess we are lucky the Jessie Jackson crowd did not come forward and claim him.

One thing about him is he was very strong. He was strong even before he began to carve rock. He could bend steel with his bare hands. Series power.

Though a "slave" and from the "Middle East", Leonardo's mother could have just as easily been a Jew and thus Jewish, as easily as Egytian, Syrian, Arab and Muslim. In the 15 hundreds, there were some Jewish slaves in nearly every part of the Mediterranean and the Middle East.

I wasn't aware Leonardo was into murder and blowing up anyone.
This the same guy doing revisionist history as does BlowJobBilly's "legacy"?

If the fingerprint wasn't bloody, I doubt there was any real moslem in him. Sounds more like a Fuhrman set up.

dermatoglyphics — has shown that there is a link between fingerprints and populations. So the police can tell from fingerprints the ethnicity of the person who committed a crime? This would be useful but it's unlikely to be true.
Why is there so much junk science to weed through? Isn't this supposed to be the 21st century? The only advantage in modern times is that we have the internet to share comments about the continual stream of ridiculous research.

"Maybe he was JEWISH!........."
A more likely event. His parentage (bastard child of a minor nobleman) is fairly well known.
Many/most of the Genoian noble familes had a Jew in the woodpile.
But JOOOOOS are bad, of course, so the MSM won't report that.
