Christopher Columbus was traditionally considered Italian, from the Republic of Genoa, but new research, including DNA analysis, supports theories that he was Portuguese. Evidence for the Portuguese theory includes his linguistic fluency, his marriage to a Portuguese noblewoman, and his son's confirmed ties to the Portuguese royal house. While the exact circumstances of his origin remain uncertain, the idea of him being Italian is now being re-evaluated in light of this new evidence.
