JeromeBlack: I'm aware. It was discovered by a Viking. I just used him since it's a popular opinion so he understands that I just didn't mean the discovery but the background and the European interaction (which was first done by Columbus) |

joeeee240: Nope. Not even the Vikings either. There are theories that put the clovis civilization as the first discoverers, which kinda makes sense since they were the earliest settlers and ancestors to the indigenous native Americans. Some records also postulate that the Chinese may have traded with the native indians long before the Vikings showed up. Truth is nobody really knows who discovered America. There have been multiple theories and counter-theories, but at the end of the day, only the voyages carried out by Christopher Columbus were able to enter the history books, because, unlike his predecessors, his voyages were well documented and preserved. Bottom line, Christopher Columbus discovered the new world, at least, OFFICIALLY. 1 Like 1 Share |

KoiceReloaded:i was asking a question |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 2:23pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
sod09: You mean native indians? I already said that. The Clovis were first settlers and ancestors to the native indians, at least according to some records, which may or may not be true. |

KoiceReloaded:alright |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by joeeee240(m): 3:10pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
KoiceReloaded: Those are just theories. As it is just common among historians, psychologist etc there will always be disagreements in form of theories. However, the generally accepted info is that it was first discovered by the Vikings. Officially, Columbus is not recognised as the one that discovered the Americas but he brought about real interactions with the Americas. There's a difference. Those theories or stories are normal in subjects like this but they are not generally recognised. So bottomlime and OFFICIALLY, The Vikings discovered Americas as this is the generally accepted fact among historians and archeologists |

COHERENCE.. 7/10 GENRE: Horror, Mystery, Sci-Fi . Movie had very nice twist, the concept was a well written mind binding flick with good dialogue & great acting from the cast. The movie was very original, witty and refreshing, IMO, it was very good but not awesome(quite interpretable, was kinda expected more & really wanted to be confused). 1 Like |

Justice League Vs The Fatal Five. 7/10. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 3:32pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
joeeee240: First, I'd like to point out the irony in the bolded, seeing that it's a theory, as it's not widely recognized by historians either. If it's not official, then why is Columbus day a federal holiday in America, and not Eriksen day? Your bottom line doesn't any make sense. Nobody is denying that the Vikings discovered America long before Columbus set sail from Europe, The bone of contention lies in the fact that there weren't any solid documentation attesting to Eriksen expeditions to the new world, unlike Christopher Columbus's that had maps, routes and everything. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 3:34pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
Neither the Vikings nor Columbus were the first to discover America. Don't argue on baseless theories. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 3:40pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
alexistaiwo: Exactly what I was saying. No one really knows. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by joeeee240(m): 3:42pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
KoiceReloaded: That's what I'm telling you, there are strong documents and archaeological evidence that proves the Vikings were the first to discover America. The Holiday is more a political Thing and at that time it was made a holiday not enough evidences were available. Also some politicians have their beliefs of what "discovery" means. Holidays are a thing for politicians not historians. Go and read up, it is generally accepted that historians and archeologists take the Vikings as the ones that discovered Americas |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by joeeee240(m): 3:44pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
KoiceReloaded: Another thing I would like to mention is that Eriksen settled in what is present day Canada so technically the USA adds this to its reasons as to why the holiday is named after Columbus |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 3:46pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
The ancestors of the native Americans Columbus met when he landed, did they grow from the trees? Chinese visited America long before the Europeans and they are not even claiming to be the first to discover America. You know what they say about history, it's always tweaked to suit the party documenting it. KoiceReloaded: |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 3:46pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
joeeee240: And there are archaeological evidence that proves the clovis were the first people to set foot on the American continent. Bro, I have studied this subject extensively, everyone has different views, different stories to tell. There is no definite. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 3:48pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
alexistaiwo: I dunno why you quoted me with this. You just repeated everything I wrote earlier. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by joeeee240(m): 3:49pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
KoiceReloaded: There will always be different theories. The generally accepted theory is that the Americas was discovered by the Vikings(you seem to have an issue with understanding what generally accepted means) |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by joeeee240(m): 3:50pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
alexistaiwo: Most Chinese theories have been debunked and are considered as having very weak evidence |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 3:51pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
joeeee240: This is where we disagree because you misspelled Christopher Columbus. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by joeeee240(m): 3:51pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
All of you are just starting to read topics I posted. Something I've been studying for years ![]() |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 3:51pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
No vex, I mistook you for the other guy. KoiceReloaded: |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by joeeee240(m): 3:52pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
KoiceReloaded: Go and read up. Historians and archeologists generally accept Vikings as the first to discover the Americas. The fact that you don't know this shows you just started reading this topic and you don't know NOTHING about it |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 3:54pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
joeeee240: Not every amerians agreed with the vikings "theory".I said theory because there are no official records, just sketchy archeological evidences. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 3:55pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
Debunked by Europeans, right? Where was Europe when the Chinese were building dynasties? Chinese been trading and sailing to Europe since God knows when and you think they are allergic to exploring the unknown world? joeeee240: |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 3:56pm On Apr 03, 2019 |
joeeee240: I don't really have the energy to search for links to prove you wrong, so let's just agree to disagree. |
