Columbus... "From Leavers."The truth is, Spanish Jews.
Italian explorer Christopher Columbus was actually a Spanish Jew, a study has been published.


According to Reuters on the 13th, Spanish forensic scientist Dr. Miguel Lorente reached this conclusion after 22 years of research.

According to Dr. Lorente, Columbus' remains and son's somatic analysis at the Cathedral of Seville found properties matching the Jewish community from the Y chromosome and mitochondrial DNA.

Columbus, who crossed the Atlantic Ocean to the Americas on October 12, 1492, was born in Genoa, Italy, in 1450.

As a result, Italian-Americans actively lobbied in the process of federal parliament enacting Columbus Day as a legal holiday to commemorate Columbus.

However, academia has consistently argued that Columbus' hometown on the expedition to the New World under the sponsorship of the Spanish royal family will not be Italy.

From the claim of Spanish Jews to the claim of being of Greek or Portuguese origin.

The history of Spanish Jews dates back to the Roman Empire in the first century.

Spanish-Jewish communities also flourished during the Islamic dynasty's rule of the Iberian Peninsula, but their fate changed after Christian forces drove Islam out of Spain in 1492.

An estimated 300,000 Spanish Jews were told to either convert to Catholicism or go abroad.

The research team confirmed that Columbus was Spanish-Jewish, but failed to identify the country of birth.

We analyzed 25 candidates for birth, but the safest conclusion is that 'born in Western Europe'.

Columbus, on the other hand, was hailed as a hero for discovering Europe's first continent, but recently, it has been widely regarded as a symbol of European exploitation.

In the United States, some regions, including Oregon, Boston, and Philadelphia, celebrate Columbus Day by changing it to "Indigenous People's Day."
