The
accidental navigator
by
Henry Denander
Scientists
in Spain
now claim
it’s
not Christopher Columbus
who’s
buried in the
magnificent
Sevilla cathedral
but
his son;
there
was a mix-up when the
remains
were moved
in
the 17th century.
he
believed he’d actually
reached
Asia .
And
when he landed on Cuba ,
he
was certain
he
was in Japan .
Now
it seems he’s lost
in
Sevilla as well.
