Columbus was chinese

Chinese traditions describe an expedition of Hi Shen and four other Buddhist monks who set off in the 5th century AD in search of "Fusang", the legendary, earthly paradise on the other side of the Eastern ocean. A jade head with pronounced Chinese features, the work of an Olmek artist, could be proof that the link between Mesoamerica and Asia's Middle Empire goes back a very long time indeed. This sculpture was found in Tenango/Mexico
