Jesus discovered America and the indians.

Joseph Smith told me. giggle;

Moroni told him.

Everyone knows that the Arabs found it first. You silly Amerikkkans just won't acknowledge it. happydood;

actually it is quite possible that the chinx got here first

(and did nothing, probably because they knew norcal would be full of japs some day)

there is, and it is plausible. i do believe pacific voyages 'discovered america' before those undertaken by our atlantic cousins.

I don't recall any stories of arabs discovering the Americas, but the chinese muslim explorer Zheng He may have discovered the pacific coast of the Americas not too long before Columbus' first voyage. A lot of his records were later destroyed, unfortunately, so it's hard to verify this. Not that it really matters, since I doubt they made contact with indigenous people.

There's also a notable theory that Polynesians migrated to South America thousands of years ago, eventually becoming the native cultures of the continent.
