The only person I know of is this chinese guy, but that isn't even proven, it's just a theory I thought. THere was a book written about him, but I also heard some historians don't believe it. He would've been well after Lief, about 70 years before Columbus, even if true. Presumably he meant the natives. But I still like the possibility that the ancient Egyptians traversed the Atlantic in reed boats. Thor Heyerdahl proved they could make the journey with the boat technology they had at the time by sailing it himself. <cite>streamofthesky posted [p:905068802] in Do you lik...

The only person I know of is this chinese guy, but that isn't even proven, it's just a theory I thought. THere was a book written about him, but I also heard some historians don't believe it.</quote> He would've been well after Lief, about 70 years before Columbus, even if true.

ParanoidObsessive 07/14/18 4:28:04 PM #48:	Zikten posted... who was before Erikson? And I mean a non native american. Aside from all the possible scenarios that are still controversial or under discussion ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-Columbian_trans-oceanic_contact_theories ), it's pretty well established that there were Norse in North America before Erikson specifically, with the implication that he was simply following their previous lead (in the same way it's implied Columbus was just following the lead of Erikson, and potentially Henry the Navigator - or at least based on Henry the Navigator's prior researches). But "non-Native American" is itself kind of dismissive, when you consider just how many people made it there and established themselves long before the continents were "discovered" by people from Europe. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:905075081] in Do you lik...
