questing for columbus

The Discovery Channel's latest adventure involves Chris Columbus' ruined flagship and the disappearance of more than a third of his men, left behind in the winter of 1492-3, when the Santa Maria crashed on the rocks of northern Haiti. Taking this with a grain of salt (especially considering the horrendous "Nefertiti Resurrected?" nonsense) but still: sounds worthy of an epic novel, doesn't it?

via mirabilis.
