- Many centuries before Columbus

  A lot of evidence proves that the Fenicians, the Celts, Cartagenese, Irish and Normans arrived at the American coast several centuries before Columbus-The official American history has begun with Columbus’ arrival in 1492. However, no matter how strange it may seem today, the great number of archeological, material, and linguistic researches made by scientists today prove that Fenicians, Celts , Cartagenese , Irish and Normans have arrived on the American coast many centuries before Columbus. For example, the Celts had their own districts in America called Whiteramanland-the land of the white people. In the 3 century B.C. all the people who had a bad life under the rule of the Celtic tribe leaders came in this land. Once a year, in spring, ships have been arriving at the green coasts of Whiteramaland. They brought many new comers and news from their fatherland. But one spring ships were not arriving. The next spring they were not coming again. That meant that the connection with the old fatherland was discovered by un-known reasons. Years have passed away, and the young ones, who were told stories by the older ones, knew about the distant land on the east, the land they came from, but they started forgetting those stories. Time has passed, and the new comers mixed with the local tribes and accepted their customs and the way of life.  After 10 centuries on the American coast ships from Europe arrived again, but by then the following generations of Celts were so assimilated with the local people that they couldn’t recognize their close friends, the Normans. Also, they never found out what has happened and why ships have stopped arriving after that spring .In fact this is what happened: In the year 56 B.C the Roman float, under the command of Julies Caesar destroyed the Celtic float. After this defeat the Celts stopped sailing.

Paricutín, active volcano in southwestern Mexico, in Michoacán State. The youngest mountain in the world, Paricutín was created from an eruption of lava and ash through a fissure in a cornfield on February 20, 1943. The cone grew through the ejection of volcanic ash and the resultant accumulation of material reached about 7.5 m (about 25 ft) high in the first day. It reached about 50 m (about 164 ft) the second day, about 140 m (about 460 ft) in the first week, and more than 336 m (more than 1100 ft) by the end of the year. Most of the cone was formed before the end of 1943, though eruptions continued until 1952. Today the mountain reaches 410 m (about 1350 ft) above its base, and a total of 2,774 m (9,101 ft) above sea level.

Inundated by Lava

The eruption of Paricutín, a volcano in southwestern Mexico, began in 1943 and ended in 1952. Lava from Paricutín overwhelmed the nearby village of San Juan Parangaricútiro, where it covered everything except the top of the church and the church tower. The partially buried church, pictured here, has become a tourist attraction.
