Christopher Columbus 'was Polish not Portuguese' claim historians | Daily Mail Online
The fresh evidence about Columbus’ background is revealed in a new book by Manuel Rosa, an academic at Duke University in the United States.
He says the voyager was not from a family of humble Italian craftsmen as previously thought - but the son of Vladislav III, an exiled King of Poland.

An IT analyst for the Duke Cancer Institute, Manuel Rosa turns sleuth in
his free time. A native of the Azores, nine volcanic islands situated
in the North Atlantic Ocean, Rosa began his career in the publishing
industry. Fluent in several languages, he was asked to translate, from
Portuguese to English, a biography on Christopher Columbus. As the
project progressed Rosa discovered what he believed to be historical
inconsistencies. Fascinated by his initial findings, he concluded there
was much more to Columbus’s story than that taught in grammar schools.
After two decades of intensive research, Rosa has become, by some
accounts, an expert on the man credited with discovering the Americas.
The book has been translated into
English and seeking a US publisher.
These books present for the first time evidence
that the “Official Columbus History” was a
monumental fraud, accepted as fact. Even though
mysterious and illogical, it was never methodically scrutinized
until now. These books are the first to be accepted by the
academics as containing evidence that:
-
The Ship Santa Maria never sank
off the coast of Haiti it was marooned on purpose.
-
Columbus always knew he
was not in India, he lied when he said he had
reached India.
-
Columbus Last Will of 1498 is a
forgery created some 80 years after he died.
-
Columbus’s wife was aunt to high
nobles including the king’s Lord Chamberlain.
