Madog and the Welsh Indians
General Discussions ( Anything Goes )
Hi Gaabi, I am amazed that anyone is still taking the Madog story seriously. I thought that after all these years people would have given up the silly belief that America was discovered by a man who never left Britain. Also I am surprised by White Americans believing that there were such thing as Welsh Indians. If America was discovered by anyone it was the Native American peoples and the belief in Welsh Indians was a kind of urban legend. It was always somebody knowing someone who knew someone else who had come across some Native American who they believed spoke Welsh. There is, as far as I am aware, no genuine evidence of Welsh people arriving in the Americas before the 16th century.
