Eddie...

i accidentally (?) ran across this info a few years back... not sure there are a lot of people aware of it... struck me as very interesting and i wondered why my world history classes seemed to skip right over this information when on the topic of world explorations..

or why Columbus is still credited with "discovering" America?

to me, this is all very interesting and for me, these questions have risen from the exploration of Jungian psychology and mandalas in this thread

not exactly sure how all this info fits together... maybe we will come to newer understandings... but i'd like everyones help staying on topic please... i am known to ramble as well...

as chocolate said, i am fond of the group which has formed here and i am likewise inspired..

Blessings All...
