[Did they get there by way of Asia? Very interesting. Note, Whites got to North America thousands of years ago, but it's not a topic I've got round to. It is however for later. There are more critical matters. Whites travelled the ancient world more extensively than you are aware of. Jan]

Archaeologists have discovered three blue glass beads that were made in Venice and date back to the year 1400. This discovery spreads the discovery of America in a completely new way.

• During the excavations, archaeologists found three blue glass beads of European origin.
• Plant fibers that can be dated back to the year 1400 have been found along with pearls.
• Pearls came from Europe to America years before Columbus.

Munich – Large parts of Alaska have hardly been explored to this day. The largest and at the same time sparsely populated US state is home to many mysteries and climatic conditions that make expeditions difficult. As the University of Alaska Fairbanks now reports, researchers have made an exciting discovery.

At Punic Point, a well-known archaeological site in northern Alaska, a team of American researchers found three glass beads during excavations in 2004 and 2005. The blue pearls are as large as blueberries and retell part of the story of the American discovery. The research team was also able to determine that the pearls come from Venice, that is, from Europe.

The university press release also states that Punic Point is a former trade route. The university said the pearls may have been brought by European merchants to Alaska to trade with the indigenous people who live there. Another property is its dazzling.

Besides the glass beads, the researchers also found remnants of plant fibers that could be well preserved underground. Thanks to the latest technology, researchers can examine it very carefully. Even seasoned team members nearly deviated from the findings: “We nearly fell backwards,” says Mike Coons, the team’s archaeologist and author of the study on pearls published in the journal American Antiquity. “Just awesome!” It sums up everyone’s surprise when they realize the meaning of this discovery.

Pearls from Europe were found in America before Columbus

The results show that the glass beads reached Punyik Point in the year 1400. This means that not only was it the first material from Europe to appear in America, but it also reached these previously unknown parts of the world before Columbus. No wonder the researchers back off on this discovery. For years, mankind has believed Columbus to be the discoverer of America, but three little blue glass beads tell a completely different story.

In other parts of the world, too, there are always unexpected discoveries. So did researchers from the Dominican Republic with them Excavations in Alexandria made an unexpected discovery. Even in areas where people have been searching and digging for years, hidden treasures can hide.
