Christopher Columbus's True Origins Unveiled: Was He Jewish-Spanish?

A groundbreaking genetic study has reignited the debate over Christopher Columbus's origins, suggesting that the famed explorer may have been of Jewish and Spanish descent, rather than Italian from Genoa as traditionally believed. This revelation comes after a 20-year investigation, challenging long-held historical narratives. The findings have sparked renewed discussions, particularly in Latin America, where Columbus's legacy is already a subject of controversy due to the colonial abuses that followed his voyages. The study adds a new layer to the ongoing reassessment of Columbus's role in history.
