How else can you explain red haired “tall” pale skinned “Indians” in Nevada that used weapons that no local Indian had ever seen before. (Like Axes?) - Shields. - Helmets. - Leg protectors. - Wooden chest plates.

LOL, time line, time line, the Spanish plundered what is now Mexico and central and south America, how many years before Jamestown. And where did all those horses and cattle come from. Time line time line.

Were there ancient Mormons in Nevada?

Anyway, Leif Ericson made his contribution to the body of navigational knowledge, no doubt about it.

But was Columbus aiming to reopen Ericson’s discovery of a new land? IIRC, ol’ Chris was sailing westward hoping to reach India and bypass the spice routes that were being waylaid by the Mohammedans.

He even called the natives he encountered “Indians”. Howcum?
