Interestingly, in spite of mounting facts that seemed to indicate that Columbus had discovered lands previously unknown, he continued to believe that Japan, China and the court of the Great Khan were very close to the lands he had discovered, as he was initially bound for Asia. He believed that he had found Asia from a western route until the day he died. 600 10 Columbus, Christopher. 651 0 America|xDiscovery and exploration|xNorse. 830 0 Christopher Columbus anthology. 830 0 BiblioBoard Core module. 914 MODID-00000000001_APPID-00000000492_ACID-000000000030490
