: Columbus still has living descendants to this day, including those carrying his surname
There have been an estimated 25 conflicting theories of his birthplace, including Poland, Great Britain, Greece, Portugal, Hungary and Scandinavia.
So I'm sure this one is right.
These new findings are based on more than two decades of research.
>cite something from the 90s
> MY NEW FINDINGS ARE BASED ON MORE THAN TWO DECADES OF RESEARCH
Columbus died in the Spanish city of Vallodalid in 1506 but wished to be buried on the Caribbean island of Hispaniola. His remains were taken there in 1542 but centuries later were transferred to Cuba before being finally laid to rest in Seville.
Oh so it's likely not him.
I wonder if they ran the same test on his relatives to see how closely the body matches theirs.
But they now believe he lived in Spain - likely in Valencia - and was Jewish. They think he hid his background to avoid persecution.
Or because he didn't care much about being Jewish and would rather sail around the world. But yeah, play that violin.
