Piri Reis

What a hot topic for rec.boats, 2007.

A 15th Century Turkish navigator produced a map that accurately depicted not only the not-yet officially "discovered" Atlantic coastlines of North and South America, but also the Antarctic continent in an ice- free state that last existed about 6000 years ago. Piri Reis claimed that some of the source material for his map came from the libraries of Alexander the Great, dating those documents to a time about 1800 years before Columbus sailed to the West Indies.

Careful now, you are messing about with cherished beliefs, Italian-American pride, a holiday, and a three day weekend.

There is a local legend here on the Gulf Coast of a Welch Prince Madoc who landed on the shore of Mobile Bay in 1170. Intriguing clues exist, but no definitive proof. More info at www.Madoc1170.com. William

Man, you're going to throw evolutionists into a tail spin. No way our ancestors were better than us.

Oh good lord, not this again.

I think I'll just let this thread die - as quickly as possible.

Besides, the Vikings discovered everything anyway long before any other groups - including Idaho.
