A unique mystery always surrounded the figure of Columbus, something particularly dubious. Everything about him is questioned: his character, his actions, his evolution, the incidents of his life, even his birth. Seven states in the Genoa area claim the honor of hosting his cradle, and to these are added Corsica and France.
It has been established that his father was a poor weaver - but Columbus tried to hide this. His humble origins seemed like a blemish, and in the days of his great glory, he speaks of his noble ancestors: he tells us that he is not the first to have been made admiral in his family, yet he does not prove it; for this reason, some of his opponents accuse him of being a liar: but these people have very little imagination and a very miserly idea of this profound, almost inscrutable nature.
