They Came Before Columbus reveals a compelling, dramatic, and superbly detailed documentation of the presence and legacy of Africans in ancient America. Examining navigation and shipbuilding; culture analogies between Native Americans and Africans; the transportation of plant, animals, and textiles between the continents; the journals, and oral accounts of the explorer themselves Ivan Van Sertima builds a pyramid of evidence to support his claim of an African presence in the New World centuries before Columbus.
