Indigenous people along the Pacific Coast of modern Russia could see the Alaska mainland from the NE Asian mainland when the weather was clear. It's only 55 miles across, and the closest islands are only 2-3 miles apart. Pretty close. Indigenous Asians in modern Russia traded with the Chinese, the Mongolians, and the Alaskan Native Americans before and after Columbus. There was never a period in time where the Alaskans didn't trade with the Indigenous Asians.
Polynesians traded with South Americans in modern Chile as far back as 1200 BCE.
Vikings traded with Canadian Indians in Nova Scotia as early as 1000 CE.
There are white skinned Alabaman Indians, most likely a lost colony from Wales. Not proven, but this is common folklore in Wales and for Alabaman Indian communities.
Tell me again how Columbus discovered the New World? Esp. if the New World was already regularly trading with Indigenous Asians? Or how it is so farfetched that ships from Africa and Australia might've landed in South America (as there is indigeneous australian dna in South American peoples, and the Toltec people in modern Yucatan looked sub-saharran African).
Bruh, the older I get, the more I realize, Columbus more or less just introduced trade/plunder for Spain and Portugal than discovering anything.
