I just wanna say that the Panama Canal was never discovered The Panama Canal is built by human hand, so I think there might have been some misconception there
The previous contact of indigenous tribes of central america with Portuguese sailors would explain why the Spanish at first were well-received. Portuguese expeditions were not for conquest, but rather exploration and trade. So, locals would be anxious to trade whatever they had for iron or steel tools & weapons.
Years ago I did some research where the new settlers from Britain claimed there was a tribe of "Native Americans" (I forget) either Florida or Virginia or the Carolinas, who were actually thought of being castaways from a Portuguese ship who spoke a broken Portuguese language after being castaways for so many years and took up local culture and lived like "Indians".
there are many such stories during many centuries. Starting w Sanct Brendan AD 565; europeans of the "!wrong" etthnical or religious group many times fled - into the ocean, not witout a plan though, they where aked to find Land for their Group; in many cases they must have travelled westwards and having come back; having being able to show for their particlar group that was posible to flee persecution and genocide! All in all this groups, that eventually made it to the americas and also Surivided, where assimiliade by the natives and so small that their gentecal and cultural impact was minial at best! There are though stone building in New England that are C14 dated to around 565; which means that Sanct brendans journey was real and many Irish monks and others that were in grate perile actually fled to what is todays new England and that they made it there, but must have been assimiliated by lcal tribes by the Law Of great Numbers and the very assistance they must have need from the local people in which herbs, plants was good and whics was poisinous, how and where to hunt animals, and many other specific problems. But among a group of 50.000 people 1.000 irish people must been assimiltaed. This process can have happened many times during the course of amny centuires, . We know for exampe of the fishermen from Galicia and England in the Great Banks just outside of New Foundland from 1250-1492; many of them must have unintentionally reach the shores of todays canada and US. The Porugues , ebing a small nation afraid of Spain and France, looked for trade partners, not an mpire and was probng arounf the Caribbeans all 1400dreds until Colombus made public the existance of thses lands. Portugal was there long before but found no trading partners, just primitive tridbes with little or no use for Portuguse which aimed at trade in spices and metals and jerwllery. But this book about havng sailed around all of America in 1475 is somewhat a little TOO fantastic!
@@robertyoung9403 I wish I knew, it was years ago, now a days old sources get buried on the internet, especially since google took over. you can't find anything that you found more then ten years ago. I just remember it was a British source.
We do know the Vikings were there long before Columbus. The lands they called “Vinland, Helluland and Markland” were documented by scholars in various parts of Europe, including by the likes of Adam of Bremen in 1075 and Galvano Fiamma in the 1300s, just to name a few.
@@Nubialady32 That has been suggested by some researchers for sure. I cannot say with much certainty that it happened though, given there hasn’t been archaeological or written evidence that can be considered anything close to irrefutable. It is also worth noting that many of the islands off the West African coast had been uninhabited, which suggests that other than the supposed journey by Mansa Musa’s predecessor, there wasn’t much, if any, African Presence in the West Atlantic.
@@Nubialady32 If you actually read Columbus’ Journal you will not find any such confirmation of that information. Many of those claims were spread by the likes of Ivan Van Sertima and Barry Fell, among others.
@@Nubialady32 Plus, if the Africans had been trading with the Americas, don’t you think there would be a measurable amount of genetic overlap? In addition, many staples of the Native American Diet were not found in Africa and vice versa(sweet potatoes/corn/tomatoes etc) seems unlikely…

Brasil's coasts had already been visited by the Portuguese Captain, Sancho Brandão in 1342. As for the coasts of North America and Terranova-Labrador (Canada) and Greeland they were visited since 1472 by Portuguese Navigators, like João Vaz Corte-Real and João Fernandes Labrador, departing from the Portuguese Azores Islands.
Absolutamente correcto. Foi Portugal quem descobriu a America nao so o Brasil. Era o unico pais no mundo a fabricar e possuir os barcos tao especiais que ninguem conhecia nem sabia como operar, bem como os mais avancados conhecimentos da geografia marítima que os levou a Africa, India , China,, Japao e todo o oriente assim como a America do sul a norte. A enorme riqueza economica e de conhecimentos científicos dos seus especialistas permitiu alcancar e desbravar todo o mundo desconhecido da Europa
@tizag Veja-se o navegador português Duarte Pacheco Pereira (1460 - 1533) terá explorado as costas da América do Sul em 1498 Em relação ao Brasil, apresenta informações no segundo capítulo da primeira parte da sua obra"Esmeraldo de situ orbis", . Resumidamente, o trecho relata: "Como no terceiro ano de vosso reinado do ano de Nosso Senhor de mil quatrocentos e noventa e oito, donde nos vossa Alteza mandou descobrir a parte ocidental, passando além a grandeza do mar Oceano, onde é achada e navegada uma tam grande terra firme, com muitas e grandes ilhas adjacentes a ela e é grandemente povoada. Tanto se dilata sua grandeza e corre com muita longura, que de uma arte nem da outra não foi visto nem sabido o fim e cabo dela. ...É achado nela muito e fino brasil com outras muitas cousas de que os navios nestes Reinos vem grandemente povoados." Duarte P Pereira foi um dos representantes que Em 1494, toma parte, como delegado de Portugal, na conferência de onde resultou o célebre Tratado de Tordesilhas Então outros autores definem que ele terá estado no futuro Brasil em 1493, daí que conhecia a localização do território
BUNCH OF LIARS. They also lie about Magellan as first to circle the earth, Vasco the Gama "Discovered Brazil" and many other lies. They invaded in the 1700's many Spanish areas and killed over 100,000 living there already and stole those land for Brazil. Liars and perverts.

About the map at 00:04 , I'm not sure if it wasn't referring to both the Azores archipelago and Madeira archipelago, that was kind of near the map marking. Madeira archipelago was already depicted on some medieval maps around 1350 (Medici-Laurentian atlas), and the Azores already appears on maps around 1375 (Catalan atlas).
Magellan got killed by arrogance. Sebastian Del Cano decided to circle the world instead of going back to the immense pacific ocean and then go to south to round south America then up the atlantic. Magellan was a bullshiter.
Dude what about the piri reis map, a map which had america and even Antarctica in it, it was made by a Turkish admiral which said that he based his map on another 20 maps from the lost library of Alexandria
This Pites Reis was a cowardly pirate who liked to rob merchant and fishermen's boats. That's why he had complex maps, they were stolen.... one day he came face to face with a war boat from the kingdom of Portugal and fled like a coward to his boss, the Turkish sultan who beheaded him for running away.
Columbus did NOT KNOW HOW TO SPEAK ITALIAN. That is proven beyond doubt. Also did not write anything on Italian. Will let that sink in and what obviously means
Not really surprising as Italy and "Italian" didn't exist. He wrote in Occitan, the language of the northern mediterranean and in Portuguese, his adopted country.
Unfortunately there are no official documents left but there are a few documental indications in Portugal that Columbus was born in this little place called Cuba in the Alentejo province, southern Portugal.
@@danielt.8573 This is a slightly different story, claiming Columbus was really someone else. We keep being promised DNA evidence, but I've seen nothing so far. Cuba (which is not far from my house I Portugal) was the favoured birthplace by the Estado Novo and those trying to claim Columbus for nationalist reasons.
@@vieiradosreismariadelurdes9105 To be precise, the claim is that Salvador Gonçalves Zarco is the "real" identity of Columbus, not to be confused with João Gonçalves Zarco, who was a documenter explorer. Unfortunately, there is no more proof of this claim than there is of any other.....
Just an observation. Leif Erikson, also known as Leif the Lucky (c. 970s - c. 1018 to 1025), was a Norse explorer who is thought to have been the first European to set foot on continental America, approximately half a millennium before Christopher Columbus.
They left a settlement in NewFoundland. Vikings even had a word for the people 'skrealing' which comes from the word 'skrea' (not sure thats what it was) but the word meant 'skin'. So 'skrealing' would mean he who wears skin. The natives in NewFoundland at the time whore animal hide as clothing. So the vikings were here long before columbus
Plusultra: Relicts of a Viking settlement have been found in 1950s/ 1960s somewhere in Canada. No Anglo- Saxon Propaganda, because people of Iceland, Scandinavia and Faroese islands, who told stories about Vinland ( wine land) for generations before 1500, are no Anglo- Saxons.
@@plusultra6199 except that vinland is a real place, it's an archaeological site that dates to the 11th century and contains nordic houses of that period as well as hundreds of buried items and human remains. viking presence in newfoundland around 1000ad is irrefutable i'm afraid. also it's a viking settlement and the angles & saxons came from what is now germany, so you're wrong on all counts; what's really "propaganda" is a video that advances portugal beating spain to the americas that completely ignores the norse contact and settlement that occurred half a millennium earlier. a swing and a miss buddy haha
@@Culturiosity something of note-is reports of black people AND to be CLEAR I’m NOT saying Black africans discovered before Europeans but RATHER… The Portuguese using Africans to explore the rivers and inlets as well we using them to fight jungle nations. I say this bc I’m actually in contact with west african boat expert and from the perspective of the Portuguese, it wasn’t just cheaper but logistically far better to travel into vast jungle rivers This would explain pre-Columbian claims of Black skinned peoples. Although some Natives painted themselves black, we have zero records after the initial contact. Panama natives had oral traditions of white men but also black “mandingo” peoples and explroer balboa actually met them along with his parties (incl. African party members) and was inquired they was a whole nation of them ALSO in southern panama Africans are arguably some of the best jungle fighters for most of human history considering their eurasian trade connections & independent innovations The mali empire had their version of navy seals and organized armies long before Europe (except Byzantine rome)
@ the stench of cope and anti-blackness reeks off of you. I’m basing this off of European accounts and instead you SHAME, not criticize, this narrative. Shaming strangers on the internet = total looser.
Iceland was allways known since about 800, but in 15th century contact to Greenland was lost. About ten years ago in german TV, i am german, a documentation about a german ship captain Dietrich Pining was shown. This man was born in northern Germany in 15th century. Next to northern Germany is Denmark, and Dietrich Pining went into danish service. After some years of war, Pining because respected regular member of Danish Navy. According to the TV documentation, one day Pining was ordered by danish King to inspect far away danish province of Iceland and looking, what is in Greenland, there had been no news for s long time. In this days danish king had good relation to Portugal, so a portugiese, either good navy officer or map painter escorted Pining and his crew. As ordered, Pining inspected Iceland and larger settlements with important persons. He collected all information about Greenland and legendary Vinland west of Greenland. In Greenland Pining and his crew noticed, both settlements are in ruins and no more any european settlers alive. The TV personal thought, that when sailing arround Greenland, it is not impossible, that the ship reached America, searching for Vinland. The TV documentaion ended, saying, that Pining because Governor of Iceland, and the portugiese man ( Cortreal ???) became Governor or Major on a portugiese island, eiher Canary or Azores islands.
The thing is - to people with boats - water is not an obstacle - it is a highway. People had been coming across the Atlantic and Pacific to the new world for thousands of years. Where did the Indians come from that Columbus met? The Age of Exploration - happened - because North Western Europe's Maritime Technology reached the point where they could sail anywhere in the world - if they really wanted to. The thing with Columbus - was that he was the representative of the King and Queen of Spain - a major European Power. THAT is the significance of Columbus. Other cultures didn't tell anybody about the new world - or if they did - only a few people paid attention to them. Eric The Red got exiled (iirc) from Norway for killing someone - and went to Iceland where he killed someone else and got exiled to Greenland. His Son - Lief Ericsson - knew about all that land to the west from _FISHERMEN_ . They knew the land was there - but they didn't care - they just wanted the fish. But - there was nothing in the New World for the Vikings - that they couldn't get in Norway - so - why cross the North Atlantic for that? Columbus represented the King and Queen of Spain - and - he brought back *_GOLD_* . .
i wouldnt be too suprised if a couple guys reached the new world and maybe established a small settlement but then they probably wouldve just eventually died in their settelment or tried to go home and not make it back, or maybe a few did (unlikely imo) and got called a nut

I've done decades of research on pre-columbian exploration and inhabbitation of the Americas. The end product thus far is that roughly 75% of the planet all came to the Americas before columbus. The dates range from the mid 1400's to 600,000 years ago. Some of these people's exploration and mapping include; Scandinavians, Scottish, Irish, Chinese, Japanese, Egyptians, Turkish, Romans, Polynesians, Phoenicians, Portuguese, Siberians, Ethiopians, Greeks, Aboriginal Australians, Homo Erectus, Homo Floresiensis, Solutreans, and a great many more. I have documented well over 90 different cultures/peoples that all came before columbus. So why did columbus get the recognition of "discovery"? His uncle was the pope and gave him the full clearance from the church to explore, exploit, and commit genocide. Up to this point in history, the church declared that only 3 continents were allowed to exist; Europe, Asia, and Africa. Vatican knights were at all the ports and would inspect all ship logs and maps. Any mention of lands other than the 3 continents allowed to exist, were confiscated and never seen again. Columbus had the maps from Marco Polo, Saint Brennan, and others that made the trip before him.
I don't believe what you say about Christopher Columbus. Today, no one really knows who Christopher Columbus was. How can we say that the Pope was his uncle? If this were true, historians would have already confirmed his identity. Most serious historians agree that Christopher Columbus it wasn't Italian, the Jenetics tests were done 15 years ago with the remains of the bones of Christopher Columbus and the so-called Italian family of Christopher Columbus, the result was negative. question ? How could a merchant marry a woman from the Portuguese nobility and close to the King of Portugal? impossible at that time. the people did not mix with the nobility. the date of arrival of the Italian Christopher Columbus in Portugal does not correspond with Christopher Columbus who was already in Portugal his age does not correspond to the age of Christopher Columbus who was already in Portugal ect...
Hi, could you tell me more or tell me where i can find all this information you mention about other races arriving in America before Spain, I am really curious about the Australian aboriginal people as I live in Australia and i am fascinated by their ancient culture, thank you..
Any chance you have a word doc with your evidence for all this I think pre-columbian interactions with the Americas to be fascinating and would like to hear more of what you have to say. I'm aware of the Polynesian and Norse travelling to the Americas but I've heard the Chinese theory is nothing but pseudo-history and the Basque fishermen theory has little evidence but is still likely
The large rectangular island is probably the Bahama banks above water during the Ice Age. Graham Hancock shows some good evidence for this in "Ancient Apocalypse" (season 1, episode 4).
Just a reminder: Being first in something its not the same as discovering. When you discover something you show it to the rest of the people. Its like when a fisherman catches a "new species" but only his closest watches it, and then a scientist appears, and shows the fish to the whole world, thats how something gets discovered.
The first islandes that you find in front of Portugal, is azores and at the time in europe we already suspected its existence. I don't know why this thing about being the first to arrive, because it was the Vikings, we have proof of that. The important thing at the time was the spice route, that's where the money came from. That's how we did it without it being by chance.
Look up Irish monks in Iceland, vikings reported it. The vikings said the monks had been there 70 years before them and look up St Brendan he was the first. The monks travel west to have a hermits life.
Yes - the vikings were in Vinland, Leif Eriksson landed there around 1000 AD. Islands to the west of Europe are dotted on many ancient maps.... some real, some not. Madeira. discovered 1419, the Azores appear to be shoen on a C14th atlas, "Hy-Brasil" (not Brazil!) was shown on many maps...... etc., etc. The areas you claim as Greenland in Iceland (both of which had been settled by vikings, are far too south. Altogether, you can find anything if you look for it........
Yes, in Portugal it snows a lot, it's very cold, people are very aggressive and always looking for a fight. The Portuguese have very clear skin and write in Cyrillic. The food chain base isn't even Mediterranean, it's more Ukrainian. And their language doesn't even come from Celtic, Visigoth, Latin, Arabic and the main one is the Galician of Galicia. You the idiots who watch and believe in sensationalist and lying videos (they only exist to get views and likes) saying that Portugal should be in Eastern Europe, you can't even imagine the nonsense you are saying. First they started saying that Portugal was in South America, then they said it was in Africa, then it belonged to Spain, They say Lisbon looks like San Francisco. It seems like Portugal doesn't even exist or is a utopia, or an imitation of something!!! F. off and leave Portugal and the Portuguese alone once and for all!!!
I do know that Maps were controlled, guarded and often split up so one person would not know the complete chart. Some countries even used children as the artist as they were easy to control and thoght to be less worldly. So the political maneuvering you explain is very possible to me. Maps.. particularly the details of the coast were seen as national secrets and spies were always trying to discover these maps.
We all know that viking came to America at least 500 years before Colombus their settlements have been found and reconstructed in New-Foundland Canada. Therefore i don't see why other group could not have done it also. There is also evidence of europeans coming over during the ice age following the northern ice wich came down all the way to France and Spain some times. They would go hunting seal on the ice and slowly made their way to America that way. They were called the Solustrean and there's a good documentary on you tube about it look for the first American or the Solustrean theory. My theory is that people have been coming over to the Americas for tens of thousand of years from different places in the world and we are just now starting to discover some of it.
Really the importance of Colon ( columbus ) is not to discover America is to start new relations between Europe and America, the important thing in that "discover" is the addition of America to the "world game". Saludos.
I really expected to hear much more about artifacts and evidence suggesting (if not proving) that Columbus made it to North America only AFTER the Vikings, the Chinese and the Egyptians.
I actually had in my attic a box full of authentic documents dated from 1402-1493, which I found among my great grandfather's possessions, and which prove everything you allege in this video (and even some other facts that, to my knowledge, no one is aware of) . Unfortunately it vanished recently. After some inquiries I found out that the cleaning lady threw all the papers into the recycling bin. They're now gone forever. So sad...
@@Culturiosity You mean "the nail in the coffin" for the opponents of these theories, right? I remember every single line as vividly as if I was holding the documents in my hands at this very moment. But now it's my word against the doubters and the sceptics, and I don't want to go through the public drilling and shame of being accused of lies and deceit . But do not despair, still there is hope. One of the documents was a letter by a direct ancestor of mine in which he described how, in the early 1400s, and following a route described to him by his own grandfather, he crossed the Atlantic Ocean Westwards and landed in a new continent. He brought a native woman with him back to Portugal. That woman converted to Catholicism and became his wife. I'm a direct descendent of that couple so buried deep in my DNA there is proof that in the early 1400s Portuguese sailors had already been to the Americas for a bit of how's your father with the native women. I have entrusted my lawyer with the necessary documents for my DNA to be donated to this UA-cam channel after my death so that the truth can be known and History amended accordingly.
@@onestepcloser06 I'm not trolling anyone. Trolling is disruptive and offensive, this is just light-hearted humour (of questionable taste, eventually...)
The relevant part of history isn't the When but the legacy that made it important. The Spanish built and founded hundreds of universities, hospitals, roads, forts, bridges and ports that still are visited by millions today and seen with awe.
i'm guessing you haven't heard of l'anse aux meadows, vinland or leif eriksen then. maybe do a bit more research buddy, the americas were found waaaaaay before columbus (half a millennium before, in 1000ad) but it wasn't by the portuguese, it was by vikings
L'Anse aux Meadows National Historic Site, Canada. Vikings established villages here in the 800s AD. The First discovers of the America's was at least them (if not the Romans). No Africans or Asians had been to the Americas, despite "revisionist claims"
Yes Africans and Asians had been to the Americas as well as Europeans prior to Columbus. This is not revisionist history these are the documented history of native Americans. I have heard these claims from Ojibwa, Cree and Mayan people.

The Columbus issue comes down to semantics. If you mean "the first person to reach", then it was Eastern Siberian hunter-gatherers, or possibly Polynesians, some 15 or maybe even 20 thousand years ago. If you take "discover" literally, then it was Columbus, he mde the "New World" known to the "Old World", no-one else did, by definition, otherwise that someone else would be known to the general public! Other Europeas reaching America hundreds of years before is irrelevant, they never made their find known to the wider public, hence they didn't "discover" anything, they were just several thousend years late to be the first to visit the Americas.
I think the Polynesians were the first to discover the Americas following the natives migrating there. There's DNA evidence that the Polynesians interbred with Native Americans C.1200AD. Along with the Sweet Potato being native to the Americas yet the Polynesians had them and the word they had for the Sweet potato was linguistically similar to the American word.
Henry Sinclair's Templar fleet sailed from Scotland long before Columbus, There is a cenotaph, ruins, a stolen runestone and more for evidence. Columbus sailed with a Templar cross on his sails, so it is likely he saw their maps.
It has nothing to do with being 'first' (the natives were there), it has to do with who transmitted the knowledge to the rest of the World, and in that Spain was the first.
I always had a feeling that the portuguese discovered america before columbus. For me the question was only to find out when did it happen. Look out for these names: Salvador Fernandes Zarco A.K.A Colon João Fernandes Lavrador João Vaz Corte Real father of Miguel and Gaspar Corte Real Is just hard to proofe it today because the age of discovery was a top secret thing and it didn’t help much either that the library of lisbon burnt down in 1755.

Europe is relatively accurate, why would they throw off all scale and put the Bahamas where the azores are? Also why would you assume those islands aren’t the azores? The south tip of Greenland does not come further south than England, this is complete BS
The Vikings discovered America hundreds of years before Columbus and as we progress I'm sure that we'll discover that people discovered America even before the Vikings. On the otherhand, the indigenous people will tell us that America was never lost. Europeans do not rule history.
The only thing missing is a theory that increasingly seems to stop being a theory and become a truth that has been erased by time. I was talking to a North American Historian, who said that it is possible that Christopher Columbus was the son of a Portuguese mother or father, or even of Venesian citizens who went to live in Portugal because Portugal was very famous and led the process of cartography and nautical maps. (Escola do D.Infante), as well as being a country that monopolized world trade, surpassing the famous Venice When Columbus first arrived to speak to the King of Portugal to finance his expedition, King John of Portugal did not want problems with the Spanish Court because of the Famous Treaty of Tordesillas and did not authorize this expedition. Of course, we all know that it was the King of Spain who financed Columbus, but under a condition that he could not reveal that he was born in Portugal, something that secretly must have also been approved by the King of Portugal, because if it became public that Columbus was possibly Portuguese This would be admitting a clear violation of the Treaty of Tordesillas by the Portuguese Why ? - Because it was a tradition for the Courts of Europe to grant a part of the Land to the Expedition Coordinator, the same thing that the Spanish Crown promised to Fernão de Magalhaes when he arrived in the Philippines (Fernão de Magalhaes and Del Cano responsible for the first nautical circumnavigation of the globe) that is, Columbus being Portuguese (son of foreigners born in Portugal) the Spanish crown would be giving land to a Portuguese And there was yet another principle in the Discoveries, if a land was discovered, all the remaining portion of land would belong to the one who discovered it...end of quote
I found a lot of mistakes in your theory,The treaty of Tordesillas was acorded after the first Colombus´s voyage,would be Treaty of Alcacovas,was firmed by Castilla and Portugal in 1478.
@@danielguerrero894 There are those who call this treaty the first version of the Treaty of Tordesillas, but it is true the first treaty is actually called the Treaty of Alcáçovas Toledo ( not Alcacovas :-) ) , but there are many errors in this detail, well you must have been there to tell the correct version, say it , and share it with us ....We are excited to put an end to all these theories finally coming from those who lived in those times....but if not, don't try to be a teacher to others...after all, history is full of untruths

Not only the Canal made me gasp, but also the failing to mention the Azores and Madeira islands...😂😂😂
@@useringeneral the Panama Canal was mentioned at 7:15.
Years ago I did some research where the new settlers from Britain claimed there was a tribe of "Native Americans" (I forget) either Florida or Virginia or the Carolinas, who were actually thought of being castaways from a Portuguese ship who spoke a broken Portuguese language after being castaways for so many years and took up local culture and lived like "Indians".
there are many such stories during many centuries. Starting w Sanct Brendan AD 565; europeans of the "!wrong" etthnical or religious group many times fled - into the ocean, not witout a plan though, they where aked to find Land for their Group; in many cases they must have travelled westwards and having come back; having being able to show for their particlar group that was posible to flee persecution and genocide! All in all this groups, that eventually made it to the americas and also Surivided, where assimiliade by the natives and so small that their gentecal and cultural impact was minial at best! There are though stone building in New England that are C14 dated to around 565; which means that Sanct brendans journey was real and many Irish monks and others that were in grate perile actually fled to what is todays new England and that they made it there, but must have been assimiliated by lcal tribes by the Law Of great Numbers and the very assistance they must have need from the local people in which herbs, plants was good and whics was poisinous, how and where to hunt animals, and many other specific problems. But among a group of 50.000 people 1.000 irish people must been assimiltaed. This process can have happened many times during the course of amny centuires, . We know for exampe of the fishermen from Galicia and England in the Great Banks just outside of New Foundland from 1250-1492; many of them must have unintentionally reach the shores of todays canada and US. The Porugues , ebing a small nation afraid of Spain and France, looked for trade partners, not an mpire and was probng arounf the Caribbeans all 1400dreds until Colombus made public the existance of thses lands. Portugal was there long before but found no trading partners, just primitive tridbes with little or no use for Portuguse which aimed at trade in spices and metals and jerwllery. But this book about havng sailed around all of America in 1475 is somewhat a little TOO fantastic!

We do know the Vikings were there long before Columbus. The lands they called “Vinland, Helluland and Markland” were documented by scholars in various parts of Europe, including by the likes of Adam of Bremen in 1075 and Galvano Fiamma in the 1300s, just to name a few.
@@Nubialady32 That has been suggested by some researchers for sure. I cannot say with much certainty that it happened though, given there hasn’t been archaeological or written evidence that can be considered anything close to irrefutable. It is also worth noting that many of the islands off the West African coast had been uninhabited, which suggests that other than the supposed journey by Mansa Musa’s predecessor, there wasn’t much, if any, African Presence in the West Atlantic.
@@Nubialady32 If you actually read Columbus’ Journal you will not find any such confirmation of that information. Many of those claims were spread by the likes of Ivan Van Sertima and Barry Fell, among others.
@@Nubialady32 Plus, if the Africans had been trading with the Americas, don’t you think there would be a measurable amount of genetic overlap? In addition, many staples of the Native American Diet were not found in Africa and vice versa(sweet potatoes/corn/tomatoes etc) seems unlikely…

Brasil's coasts had already been visited by the Portuguese Captain, Sancho Brandão in 1342. As for the coasts of North America and Terranova-Labrador (Canada) and Greeland they were visited since 1472 by Portuguese Navigators, like João Vaz Corte-Real and João Fernandes Labrador, departing from the Portuguese Azores Islands.
Absolutamente correcto. Foi Portugal quem descobriu a America nao so o Brasil. Era o unico pais no mundo a fabricar e possuir os barcos tao especiais que ninguem conhecia nem sabia como operar, bem como os mais avancados conhecimentos da geografia marítima que os levou a Africa, India , China,, Japao e todo o oriente assim como a America do sul a norte. A enorme riqueza economica e de conhecimentos científicos dos seus especialistas permitiu alcancar e desbravar todo o mundo desconhecido da Europa
There is absolutely no proof for this - and anyway Portugal's discoveries only commenced centuries after Leif Eriksson reached Vinland.
@tizag
Veja-se o navegador português Duarte Pacheco Pereira (1460 - 1533)
terá explorado as costas da América do Sul em 1498
Em relação ao Brasil, apresenta informações no segundo capítulo da primeira parte da sua obra"Esmeraldo de situ orbis",
.
Resumidamente, o trecho relata: "Como no terceiro ano de vosso reinado do ano de Nosso Senhor de mil quatrocentos e noventa e oito, donde nos vossa Alteza mandou descobrir a parte ocidental, passando além a grandeza do mar Oceano, onde é achada e navegada uma tam grande terra firme, com muitas e grandes ilhas adjacentes a ela e é grandemente povoada.
Tanto se dilata sua grandeza e corre com muita longura, que de uma arte nem da outra não foi visto nem sabido o fim e cabo dela.
...É achado nela muito e fino brasil com outras muitas cousas de que os navios nestes Reinos vem grandemente povoados."
Duarte P Pereira foi um dos representantes que
Em 1494, toma parte, como delegado de Portugal, na conferência de onde resultou o célebre Tratado de Tordesilhas
Então outros autores definem que ele terá estado no futuro Brasil em 1493, daí que conhecia a localização do território
@@tizag Yes no one had boats but Portugal.😂😂

BUNCH OF LIARS. They also lie about Magellan as first to circle the earth, Vasco the Gama "Discovered Brazil" and many other lies. They invaded in the 1700's many Spanish areas and killed over 100,000 living there already and stole those land for Brazil. Liars and perverts.
About the map at 00:04 , I'm not sure if it wasn't referring to both the Azores archipelago and Madeira archipelago, that was kind of near the map marking.
Madeira archipelago was already depicted on some medieval maps around 1350 (Medici-Laurentian atlas), and the Azores already appears on maps around 1375 (Catalan atlas).
100%
7:15 be careful with the information you are spreading! The Panamá Canal was built a hundred years ago, it wasnt there before
Interesting video! Wonder how things would turn out had Sebastian I not been killed in battle heirless

Magellan got killed by arrogance. Sebastian Del Cano decided to circle the world instead of going back to the immense pacific ocean and then go to south to round south America then up the atlantic. Magellan was a bullshiter.

Dude what about the piri reis map, a map which had america and even Antarctica in it, it was made by a Turkish admiral which said that he based his map on another 20 maps from the lost library of Alexandria
I’m aware of it, truly fascinating but opinions diverge
This Pites Reis was a cowardly pirate who liked to rob merchant and fishermen's boats. That's why he had complex maps, they were stolen.... one day he came face to face with a war boat from the kingdom of Portugal and fled like a coward to his boss, the Turkish sultan who beheaded him for running away.
Antartica isn’t connected to South America 🤦♂️
@@TonyTrupp yes they are, it's the South Sandwich Islands

Columbus did NOT KNOW HOW TO SPEAK ITALIAN. That is proven beyond doubt. Also did not write anything on Italian. Will let that sink in and what obviously means
Not really surprising as Italy and "Italian" didn't exist.
He wrote in Occitan, the language of the northern mediterranean and in Portuguese, his adopted country.
Unfortunately there are no official documents left but there are a few documental indications in Portugal that Columbus was born in this little place called Cuba in the Alentejo province, southern Portugal.
@@danielt.8573 This is a slightly different story, claiming Columbus was really someone else. We keep being promised DNA evidence, but I've seen nothing so far.

Yes very imaginative story telling.😂😂
Just an observation. Leif Erikson, also known as Leif the Lucky (c. 970s - c. 1018 to 1025), was a Norse explorer who is thought to have been the first European to set foot on continental America, approximately half a millennium before Christopher Columbus.
They left a settlement in NewFoundland. Vikings even had a word for the people 'skrealing' which comes from the word 'skrea' (not sure thats what it was) but the word meant 'skin'. So 'skrealing' would mean he who wears skin. The natives in NewFoundland at the time whore animal hide as clothing. So the vikings were here long before columbus
@@qmarsh Yes that's your Anglo Saxon propaganda. Repeat the same lie and people might believe you! Only I don't.
@@Krebs-Danmark I wonder if they spread diseases through the native populations
Plusultra: Relicts of a Viking settlement have been found in 1950s/ 1960s somewhere in Canada. No Anglo- Saxon Propaganda, because people of Iceland, Scandinavia and Faroese islands, who told stories about Vinland ( wine land) for generations before 1500, are no Anglo- Saxons.
@@plusultra6199 except that vinland is a real place, it's an archaeological site that dates to the 11th century and contains nordic houses of that period as well as hundreds of buried items and human remains. viking presence in newfoundland around 1000ad is irrefutable i'm afraid. also it's a viking settlement and the angles & saxons came from what is now germany, so you're wrong on all counts; what's really "propaganda" is a video that advances portugal beating spain to the americas that completely ignores the norse contact and settlement that occurred half a millennium earlier. a swing and a miss buddy haha

@@Culturiosity something of note-is reports of black people AND to be CLEAR I’m NOT saying Black africans discovered before Europeans but RATHER…
The Portuguese using Africans to explore the rivers and inlets as well we using them to fight jungle nations.
I say this bc I’m actually in contact with west african boat expert and from the perspective of the Portuguese, it wasn’t just cheaper but logistically far better to travel into vast jungle rivers
This would explain pre-Columbian claims of Black skinned peoples. Although some Natives painted themselves black, we have zero records after the initial contact.
Panama natives had oral traditions of white men but also black “mandingo” peoples and explroer balboa actually met them along with his parties (incl. African party members) and was inquired they was a whole nation of them ALSO in southern panama
Africans are arguably some of the best jungle fighters for most of human history considering their eurasian trade connections & independent innovations

@ the stench of cope and anti-blackness reeks off of you. I’m basing this off of European accounts and instead you SHAME, not criticize, this narrative. Shaming strangers on the internet = total looser.
Iceland was allways known since about 800, but in 15th century contact to Greenland was lost. About ten years ago in german TV, i am german, a documentation about a german ship captain Dietrich Pining was shown. This man was born in northern Germany in 15th century. Next to northern Germany is Denmark, and Dietrich Pining went into danish service. After some years of war, Pining because respected regular member of Danish Navy. According to the TV documentation, one day Pining was ordered by danish King to inspect far away danish province of Iceland and looking, what is in Greenland, there had been no news for s long time. In this days danish king had good relation to Portugal, so a portugiese, either good navy officer or map painter escorted Pining and his crew. As ordered, Pining inspected Iceland and larger settlements with important persons. He collected all information about Greenland and legendary Vinland west of Greenland. In Greenland Pining and his crew noticed, both settlements are in ruins and no more any european settlers alive. The TV personal thought, that when sailing arround Greenland, it is not impossible, that the ship reached America, searching for Vinland. The TV documentaion ended, saying, that Pining because Governor of Iceland, and the portugiese man ( Cortreal ???) became Governor or Major on a portugiese island, eiher Canary or Azores islands.
The thing is - to people with boats - water is not an obstacle - it is a highway.
People had been coming across the Atlantic and Pacific to the new world for thousands of years.
Where did the Indians come from that Columbus met?
The Age of Exploration - happened - because North Western Europe's Maritime Technology reached the point where they could sail anywhere in the world - if they really wanted to.
The thing with Columbus - was that he was the representative of the King and Queen of Spain - a major European Power.
THAT is the significance of Columbus.
Other cultures didn't tell anybody about the new world - or if they did - only a few people paid attention to them.
Eric The Red got exiled (iirc) from Norway for killing someone - and went to Iceland where he killed someone else and got exiled to Greenland. His Son - Lief Ericsson - knew about all that land to the west from _FISHERMEN_ . They knew the land was there - but they didn't care - they just wanted the fish.
But - there was nothing in the New World for the Vikings - that they couldn't get in Norway - so - why cross the North Atlantic for that?
Columbus represented the King and Queen of Spain - and - he brought back *_GOLD_* .

BS, my friend... i would give you sources, but it would be a waste of time
i wouldnt be too suprised if a couple guys reached the new world and maybe established a small settlement but then they probably wouldve just eventually died in their settelment or tried to go home and not make it back, or maybe a few did (unlikely imo) and got called a nut
@ yeah, that's almost 100% what happened, given they found some "viking stuff" in north east canada (more or less)...

I've done decades of research on pre-columbian exploration and inhabbitation of the Americas. The end product thus far is that roughly 75% of the planet all came to the Americas before columbus. The dates range from the mid 1400's to 600,000 years ago. Some of these people's exploration and mapping include; Scandinavians, Scottish, Irish, Chinese, Japanese, Egyptians, Turkish, Romans, Polynesians, Phoenicians, Portuguese, Siberians, Ethiopians, Greeks, Aboriginal Australians, Homo Erectus, Homo Floresiensis, Solutreans, and a great many more. I have documented well over 90 different cultures/peoples that all came before columbus. So why did columbus get the recognition of "discovery"? His uncle was the pope and gave him the full clearance from the church to explore, exploit, and commit genocide. Up to this point in history, the church declared that only 3 continents were allowed to exist; Europe, Asia, and Africa. Vatican knights were at all the ports and would inspect all ship logs and maps. Any mention of lands other than the 3 continents allowed to exist, were confiscated and never seen again. Columbus had the maps from Marco Polo, Saint Brennan, and others that made the trip before him.
I don't believe what you say about Christopher Columbus.
Today, no one really knows who Christopher Columbus was.
How can we say that the Pope was his uncle?
If this were true, historians would have already confirmed his identity.
Most serious historians agree that Christopher Columbus
it wasn't Italian, the Jenetics tests were done 15 years ago
with the remains of the bones of Christopher Columbus and the so-called Italian family of Christopher Columbus, the result was negative.
question ?
How could a merchant marry a woman from the Portuguese nobility and close to the King of Portugal?
impossible at that time.
the people did not mix with the nobility.
the date of arrival of the Italian Christopher Columbus in Portugal does not correspond
with Christopher Columbus who was already in Portugal
his age does not correspond to the age of Christopher Columbus who was already in Portugal ect...
Hi, could you tell me more or tell me where i can find all this information you mention about other races arriving in America before Spain, I am really curious about the Australian aboriginal people as I live in Australia and i am fascinated by their ancient culture, thank you..

Any chance you have a word doc with your evidence for all this I think pre-columbian interactions with the Americas to be fascinating and would like to hear more of what you have to say. I'm aware of the Polynesian and Norse travelling to the Americas but I've heard the Chinese theory is nothing but pseudo-history and the Basque fishermen theory has little evidence but is still likely
Bom trabalho caro amigo!✌️

The large rectangular island is probably the Bahama banks above water during the Ice Age. Graham Hancock shows some good evidence for this in "Ancient Apocalypse" (season 1, episode 4).
The US map shows West Virginia, not Virginia. WV split from VA during the 1861-65 war.
It has been long established that Vikings landed in Canada around 1000 AD.
Very probable! Many things were lost in 1755.
You are trolling right? nobody could be that stupid deliberately.
Just a reminder: Being first in something its not the same as discovering. When you discover something you show it to the rest of the people. Its like when a fisherman catches a "new species" but only his closest watches it, and then a scientist appears, and shows the fish to the whole world, thats how something gets discovered.
The first islandes that you find in front of Portugal, is azores and at the time in europe we already suspected its existence. I don't know why this thing about being the first to arrive, because it was the Vikings, we have proof of that. The important thing at the time was the spice route, that's where the money came from. That's how we did it without it being by chance.
Correct!
They found the Panama canal. That's pretty cool.
You are trolling right? nobody could be that stupid deliberately.
@mattrishton the documentary actually said that.
Have you ever heard of saint Brendan an Irish monk he explored the entire East Coast of North America in 556 AD
Look up Irish monks in Iceland, vikings reported it. The vikings said the monks had been there 70 years before them and look up St Brendan he was the first. The monks travel west to have a hermits life.
"Discovery" means making it known to the general public. If it does not become generally known, it has not been "discovered".
the azores perhaps?
Yes - the vikings were in Vinland, Leif Eriksson landed there around 1000 AD.
Islands to the west of Europe are dotted on many ancient maps.... some real, some not. Madeira. discovered 1419, the Azores appear to be shoen on a C14th atlas, "Hy-Brasil" (not Brazil!) was shown on many maps...... etc., etc. The areas you claim as Greenland in Iceland (both of which had been settled by vikings, are far too south. Altogether, you can find anything if you look for it........
Do you have a website?
How would a person from Eastern Europe be the first to find the New World?
Yes, in Portugal it snows a lot, it's very cold, people are very aggressive and always looking for a fight. The Portuguese have very clear skin and write in Cyrillic. The food chain base isn't even Mediterranean, it's more Ukrainian. And their language doesn't even come from Celtic, Visigoth, Latin, Arabic and the main one is the Galician of Galicia.
You the idiots who watch and believe in sensationalist and lying videos (they only exist to get views and likes) saying that Portugal should be in Eastern Europe, you can't even imagine the nonsense you are saying.
First they started saying that Portugal was in South America, then they said it was in Africa, then it belonged to Spain, They say Lisbon looks like San Francisco. It seems like Portugal doesn't even exist or is a utopia, or an imitation of something!!!
F. off and leave Portugal and the Portuguese alone once and for all!!!
I do know that Maps were controlled, guarded and often split up so one person would not know the complete chart. Some countries even used children as the artist as they were easy to control and thoght to be less worldly. So the political maneuvering you explain is very possible to me. Maps.. particularly the details of the coast were seen as national secrets and spies were always trying to discover these maps.
We all know that viking came to America at least 500 years before Colombus their settlements have been found and reconstructed in New-Foundland Canada. Therefore i don't see why other group could not have done it also. There is also evidence of europeans coming over during the ice age following the northern ice wich came down all the way to France and Spain some times. They would go hunting seal on the ice and slowly made their way to America that way. They were called the Solustrean and there's a good documentary on you tube about it look for the first American or the Solustrean theory. My theory is that people have been coming over to the Americas for tens of thousand of years from different places in the world and we are just now starting to discover some of it.
That's Anglo Saxon propaganda.
Really the importance of Colon ( columbus ) is not to discover America is to start new relations between Europe and America, the important thing in that "discover" is the addition of America to the "world game". Saludos.
I really expected to hear much more about artifacts and evidence suggesting (if not proving) that Columbus made it to North America only AFTER the Vikings, the Chinese and the Egyptians.

Unfortunately it vanished recently. After some inquiries I found out that the cleaning lady threw all the papers into the recycling bin. They're now gone forever. So sad...

One of the documents was a letter by a direct ancestor of mine in which he described how, in the early 1400s, and following a route described to him by his own grandfather, he crossed the Atlantic Ocean Westwards and landed in a new continent. He brought a native woman with him back to Portugal. That woman converted to Catholicism and became his wife. I'm a direct descendent of that couple so buried deep in my DNA there is proof that in the early 1400s Portuguese sailors had already been to the Americas for a bit of how's your father with the native women.

There were people already living there when Columbus arrived....how can he have discovered it
L'Anse aux Meadows National Historic Site, Canada. Vikings established villages here in the 800s AD. The First discovers of the America's was at least them (if not the Romans). No Africans or Asians had been to the Americas, despite "revisionist claims"
Yes Africans and Asians had been to the Americas as well as Europeans prior to Columbus. This is not revisionist history these are the documented history of native Americans. I have heard these claims from Ojibwa, Cree and Mayan people.
America wasn't lost. But Columbus certainly wasn't the first to discover it from Europe
norsemen discovered azores before portugese, some say they even found antilles, hence visigoths knew about lands to the west
I have no doubt someone found or landed on North America before Columbus.

The Columbus issue comes down to semantics. If you mean "the first person to reach", then it was Eastern Siberian hunter-gatherers, or possibly Polynesians, some 15 or maybe even 20 thousand years ago. If you take "discover" literally, then it was Columbus, he mde the "New World" known to the "Old World", no-one else did, by definition, otherwise that someone else would be known to the general public! Other Europeas reaching America hundreds of years before is irrelevant, they never made their find known to the wider public, hence they didn't "discover" anything, they were just several thousend years late to be the first to visit the Americas.
An irishman discovered America. He just never made it back to tell anyone.
lol 😂
The ice unites canada, greenland, europe, russia since long long time. Bears and humans, go to and fro - every winter, without scandal.
I think the Polynesians were the first to discover the Americas following the natives migrating there. There's DNA evidence that the Polynesians interbred with Native Americans C.1200AD. Along with the Sweet Potato being native to the Americas yet the Polynesians had them and the word they had for the Sweet potato was linguistically similar to the American word.
Henry Sinclair's Templar fleet sailed from Scotland long before Columbus, There is a cenotaph, ruins, a stolen runestone and more for evidence. Columbus sailed with a Templar cross on his sails, so it is likely he saw their maps.
A red cross was used throughout Europe, bur especially Portugal - it was also the symbol of Genoa.
It has nothing to do with being 'first' (the natives were there), it has to do with who transmitted the knowledge to the rest of the World, and in that Spain was the first.
I always had a feeling that the portuguese discovered america before columbus. For me the question was only to find out when did it happen.
Look out for these names:
Salvador Fernandes Zarco A.K.A Colon
João Fernandes Lavrador
João Vaz Corte Real father of Miguel and Gaspar Corte Real
Is just hard to proofe it today because the age of discovery was a top secret thing and it didn’t help much either that the library of lisbon burnt down in 1755.

@@plusultra6199 Para empezar 1492 es la propaganda crack,nunca quisieron hablar de los descubrimientos portugueses en las Azores occidentales y en Terranova de los que se aprovechó Colón.
@danielguerrero894 Eso es la propaganda Portuguesa. Tu te aprovochastes de Colon para descubrir Brasil. Terranova lo descubrio Los Vascos. Los Portugueses cada vez mas envidiosos de Los Españoles.
@@plusultra6199 Não, quem mente são os espanhóis, manipulam a história porque não descobriram nada. Portugal descobriu o Brasil com a técnica da volta do mar nas suas expedições à Índia en 1500, em que tocou 4 continentes aliás, Colombo aprendeu tudo em Portugal e nasceu aí a sua ideia de ir para oeste.Portugal descobriu os açores americanos (Flores e Corvo) em 1452 e Terranova do Bacalhau em. 1473 depois de uma colaboração com a Dinamarca, assim dizia o espanhol Bartolomé de las Casas e muitos cronistas da época. Tal como o Pacífico, descoberto por Portugal em 1512, não por Balboa em 1513. A Espanha tem de mentir para poder igualar-se. as contribuições universais Dos 4 grandes países europeus, o seu obstáculo é Portugal, que iniciou a globalização e foi o primeiro império global.
@@plusultra6199 Los españoles siempre sintieron envidia de los portugueses,pero tuvieron que usar la propaganda para ocultar su inferioridad,Brasil habla portugués por Cabral que iba a la India,no Colón que lo aprendio todo en Portugal.Primeros en llegar a America a traves de las azores occidentales en 1452 y Terranova en 1473,es imposible que vascos descubrieran nada sin carabelas.También Portugal fue el primero en llegar al Pacifico y el primer imperio global,eso nadie lo va a cambiar y menos voce.
I hope you know that the vikings came to North America a few centuries earlier.
Let me guess... youre portuguese?
Yes, i can't denny there's a bit in me that is a little biased towards a portuguese discovery of America, but the arguments i present in this video are mostly just documents, maps and stories that everyone has access to and really question the legitimacy of the official discovery
@@Culturiosityá distância percebe-se a inveja eterna a nós portugueses daqueles que seus povos nada construíram nem descobriram.e.sempre nos tentaram roubar o que é nosso.
That map at the beginning is horrible and it’s a massive stretch to suggest the islands represent the Bahamas. Europe is relatively accurate, why would they throw off all scale and put the Bahamas where the azores are? Also why would you assume those islands aren’t the azores? The south tip of Greenland does not come further south than England, this is complete BS
Funny how your only source, you anglos, is always Bartolomé de las Casas.
Panama Canal… the Portuguese knew about the canal before it existed!?!?😮
Then why don't the authorities in the top Universities accept these facts.
@@rebasingh258 Because their not facts. To be so, they have to be scrutinized and accepted by various bodies unrelated to each other.
Vikings smoked both countys to discover America by centuries
How can a place be discovered if it already had people on it? Should be titled discovered by Europeans or others.
@@rpinarreta Not this bs again. Think a bit, and you'll find out.
@@cultusgti Fake history. Northern Europeans trolling us and alternative history.
The Vikings discovered America hundreds of years before Columbus and as we progress I'm sure that we'll discover that people discovered America even before the Vikings. On the otherhand, the indigenous people will tell us that America was never lost. Europeans do not rule history.
OMG so the Portuguese knew about the Panama canal in the 15th century 😂😂😂
The Portuguese invented time travelling aswel didn't you know!😂😂
That's why they knew about it in the 15th century.😂😂
Of course. The Portuguese knew everything. They was kangz and shiet.
Amerigo Vespucci discovered the America's in the 1420's

the romans found it way before all of them then did the vikings.
Egypt was there 1000 years before. And China on the west Coast.
Who cares if they never left genealogy. They went back where they were from,and never said anything.
The continent was already inhabited by people long before these europeans
The narrator must be Portuguese 😂
The only thing missing is a theory that increasingly seems to stop being a theory and become a truth that has been erased by time.
I was talking to a North American Historian, who said that it is possible that Christopher Columbus was the son of a Portuguese mother or father, or even of Venesian citizens who went to live in Portugal because Portugal was very famous and led the process of cartography and nautical maps. (Escola do D.Infante), as well as being a country that monopolized world trade, surpassing the famous Venice
When Columbus first arrived to speak to the King of Portugal to finance his expedition, King John of Portugal did not want problems with the Spanish Court because of the Famous Treaty of Tordesillas and did not authorize this expedition.
Of course, we all know that it was the King of Spain who financed Columbus, but under a condition that he could not reveal that he was born in Portugal, something that secretly must have also been approved by the King of Portugal, because if it became public that Columbus was possibly Portuguese This would be admitting a clear violation of the Treaty of Tordesillas by the Portuguese
Why ? - Because it was a tradition for the Courts of Europe to grant a part of the Land to the Expedition Coordinator, the same thing that the Spanish Crown promised to Fernão de Magalhaes when he arrived in the Philippines (Fernão de Magalhaes and Del Cano responsible for the first nautical circumnavigation of the globe) that is, Columbus being Portuguese (son of foreigners born in Portugal) the Spanish crown would be giving land to a Portuguese
And there was yet another principle in the Discoveries, if a land was discovered, all the remaining portion of land would belong to the one who discovered it...end of quote
I found a lot of mistakes in your theory,The treaty of Tordesillas was acorded after the first Colombus´s voyage,would be Treaty of Alcacovas,was firmed by Castilla and Portugal in 1478.
@@danielguerrero894 There are those who call this treaty the first version of the Treaty of Tordesillas, but it is true the first treaty is actually called the Treaty of Alcáçovas Toledo ( not Alcacovas :-) ) , but there are many errors in this detail, well you must have been there to tell the correct version, say it , and share it with us ....We are excited to put an end to all these theories finally coming from those who lived in those times....but if not, don't try to be a teacher to others...after all, history is full of untruths
@@PedrodoBrasil2023 I never have told him that I was his master,by the way I from of South Spain,Huelva,the city where Colon and his carabelas went to the New World,but in the relate that they show us in Spain there are many nationalism,I always suspected that the portuguese arrived to America before and everything this was propaganda because the Papa in 1492 was spanish. I also believe that Vespucio has been a controversial figure because he travelled and realized about America with the portuguese and not with spanish boats.
@@danielguerrero894 I know Huelva like the back of my hands, a very beautiful city. I don't know if Colon was Portuguese or even Spanish, one thing I know, Colon had to come to Portugal to learn something about sailing on the open sea, the Genoese at most knew how to sail on the closed sea (Mediterraneo), and I don't see the kingdom of Portugal passing on nautical military secrets to a foreigner, secrets that made Portugal one of the Countries of Discoveries just like Spain. Soon we are faced with something very strange, and speaking of Spain in the Seville Cathedral where Columbus's remains rest, further down there are the urns of Spanish kings and princes, one of whom is the son of Spanish and Portuguese parents who are said to have the DNA of COLOMBO, just take this prince's DNA and compare it with Columbus's DNA and you can easily put an end to this nonsense of being Genovese. The Spanish already know that he is either Spanish or Portuguese, but they didn't publish this DNA study who knows why, there are political interests above the truth
@@PedrodoBrasil2023 I don ´t believe that Colon was spanish If it had been like that it would have been said from minute 1,portuguese could be but with others cases like Magellan never hid it that he was portuguese.The politic interests are not about nationality,in fact is the discover what is incorrect.
Vikings where the first Europeans
You must be nuts! The Portuguese then already knew about the Panama Canal? You must be nuts! É melhor inventar outra… Ainda, o Colombo não falava Italiano, no máximo falava Madeirense e Alentejano
POrtuguese knew about the Panama Canal CENTURIES before it was built... gotta love youtube bullshit
