In fourteen hundred and ninety two, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.  Well, that's what I learned when I was in school.  But is that true?  Did Columbus "discover" America?  Wyatt looks for evidence that Columbus wasn't the first to discover America.  As a matter of fact, she goes back as far as 40,000 years!  What do you think?  Do you go along with that?
SUBJECTS:      America -- Antiquities.
                        America -- Discovery and exploration.
