african

Presents an argument that suggests Africans were in North America before Columbus, and provides documentary evidence to support the claim, citing the trade of plants, animals, and textiles between continents, as well as the diaries, journals, and accounts of explorers.

Explorers' diaries and journals, carbon-14-dated sculptures, Arab documents and maps, and dated skeletons provide evidence for the pre-Columbian presence in the Americas of black men and their influence on the Olmec, Mayan, and Aztec civilizations.
