Columbus voyage questioned by Johns Hopkins geographer
In the Southwestern Journal of Anthropology, Prof George H. Carter of Johns Hopkins argues a pre Columbian ocean route may have existed two to three thousand years earlier. He suggests Asian peoples reached the Americas before 1000 B C and that plants such as sweet potato cotton and Mexican poppy prove early contact. He cites evidence of shared technologies and possible pre Colum bian sea voyages in giant canoes and adjacent cross cultural exchanges at roughly the time of Christ.
