Did the Chinese Beat Columbus to America?
Well, sure he did…and what of it? I can be a bit of a contrarian from time to time. That's why I respect and admire skeptical, independent historian Gunnar Thompson , who's gathered some pretty compelling evidence disputing the history we all grew up with. Namely, the assertion that Christopher Columbus “discovered” America.
Never mind the fact that the continent had already been discovered by the people living there; that's an argument for another day.

Even more surprising for those of us brought up with the conventional “New World” orthodoxy, Europeans may not have been the first to accomplish this at all!
Instead, Thompson suggest that the Chinese were first. Specifically, a Chinese explorer named Zheng He. Between 1405 and 1433, Admiral Zheng He is known to have explored coastal areas of southest Asia, India, the Arabian Sea, and eastern Africa at least as far south as modern-day Kenya.
