Christopher Columbus 'was Jewish and born in Western Europe'

"We have DNA from Christopher Columbus, very partial, but sufficient. We have DNA from Hernando Colón, his son. And both in the Y chromosome (male) and in the mitochondrial DNA (transmitted by the mother) of Hernando there are traits compatible with Jewish origin."
"After analysing 25 possible places, it was only possible to say Columbus was born in Western Europe. The origins as well as the final resting place of the 15th-century explorer have long been argued over among experts."
