I’ve been to the Canary Island ,Malaga Spain,And Funchal Madeira about 18 years ago very Portuguese place,that island was founded by Sephardic Jews from Portugal.
As antilhas tem mais de 40 nomes portugueses. O distrito de Beja é a origem desses nomes. Cuba é um dos nomes mais conhecidos nas antilhas mas ele já existia em Portugal.
Thanks Jeff & André ☺ That was so cute of Veronica to steal your dessert (when you weren't looking) & also your trademark line lol! 🤣 With all that info of the history of Portuguese explorers you should now be qualified enough to write the best book in the world! Have a truly beautiful week my friends 🤗
Interesting history lesson. But for us Veronica stole the show at the end lol😂. Oh and we are here we arrived today in Madeira Wednesday 12th October 🎉
@@Hittheroadmadeira We all have an obligation as citizens of the world to seek the truth, Columbus may even be Chinese I don't care (satirical expression), but we all know that History is a Science and as a science its method is to always seek the truth Maybe if it turns out that Columbus was Portuguese, they will start looking for where he learned, I suspect it was at the Sagres Naval School founded by Infante D. Henrique 50 years before Columbus was born, and I believe that there is a lot of mystery surrounding this school because there are many facets written in manuscripts of the time that portray sea voyages that have not yet come to light in history.
Hi Jeff and Veronica, Zarcos looks like an awesome restaurant. Espetada is my favourite, was it good? Better than in Santo da Serra. Have a blessed week and keep up with these historical inserts. The traveling Portuguese, discoverers of the world.
Thanx Tony! Yes, the espetada was great! We’re doing all of that soon I hope, travelling Portuguese, etc ... in due time of course. Have a great weekend !! Ciao ;)
Hi. This is great! After reading the book The Portuguese Columbus secret agent of king John ll, Christopher Columbus was Portuguese and The real colon(Columbus was a misnomer). I strongly think colon was the grandson of Joao goncalves zarco. Christopher means Christ bearer as was his job to spread Christianity. The name was given to Columbus from the order of Christ. Christopher colon meaning colon the part of the digestive tract that devoured the natives of America colonizer, colonist, colonizing. Salvador Fernandez Zarco was Columbus birthday name. And he was born in Cuba, Portugal.
Christopher Columbus Son was Diego Columbus also the first President of Dominican Republic the son of him was Luis Columbus Toledo his son Juan Columbus luyando he was the mayor of Coamo Puerto Rico I am decent from him, I have my family tree, I am 21% Portuguese
Hi guys, this sunday I am going to visit Madeira.? I read something about trail Pico to Pico, that say it si closed, fot safe. Is there any way I can find out if the mountain trails are open ahead
His real name was Salvador Fernandes ZARCO who came from a long line of Portuguese Crypto Jews,and he was a southern Portuguese from Cuba,Portugal,he spoke Castilian with a thick Portuguese accent,he visited Italy but he was NOT Italian whatsoever,plus it was said that he had very Swarthy complexion according to standard primary sources not Wikipedia.
So, with this new found information, we find out it wasn’t the Italians, but the Portuguese that founded a land that was clearly already founded! The aboriginal people of America was & always will be of African descent! Columbus himself wrote about it in his diary! He said that they would never survive the route that the Africans take!
@@veronicacapelinha2243 That's exactly how much I had to walk downhill to get to school every day since first grade. I had to leave home at 7:20 to make it at 8 AM. Back home it was longer 😇 The best times were in freezing cold winters when the kids could slide down the icy frozen streets 🥰
Well actually with this new found info we realise not all that is true is in history books… just depends on what side you’re on reading it’s propaganda…. Something I’ve learnt is is the more I know the less I understand….
Your correct. They limit black people to only living in Africa when we was all over smh. King James was black king Henry, queen Charlotte and so many more Hell even Abraham Lincoln was black . But the big secret is to hide out history by all means and the Americas was full of us too but the pretendians get credit ..
Wow Jef! You really rocked my world. Longtime viewer and subscriber. First-time commenter. I am an American who is a direct descendant of Portuguese crypto-Jew Samuel Nunes en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Nunez I am about to get Portuguese citizenship. My wife and I will be in Madeira this coming February for about six weeks with an eye towards moving to the island, at least part-time. Just before a brief visit last March, I discovered hints that back in the 1600s, Nunes' grandparents Diogo Gomes Henriques and Isabel Henriques were married in Canhas and died in Ponta da Sol. But other than Menasseh ben Israel being born on Madeira, I had never heard of there being a crypto-Jewish community during the Inquisition. Maybe Zarco made it possible or just the distance from Lisbon allowed it? I don't know. In any case, you have made me more eager to do some digging when I'm there. Thanks!!!
Hey!! I’m so so sorry it took me 2 weeks to reply to this !! Wow. What a story !! We have to cherish these stories in any way we can or they’ll disappear. It’s part of the reason why I have this channel as well ... I would suggest you looking in to it. You need to contact Tania, her email is in the bio section I believe, for anything Madeira related, family history stuff. Keep searching !! ✌️
Beautiful city I’ve been there,very beautiful island and close to North Africa and Spain and Portugal,I went their with my mom in my mid 20’s..

I do love Zarcos restaurant, delicious Espetada, also loving the history about our amazing island
I was pleasantly surprised 🙏 have a great week Peds! 🤘
All the Islands that he named have the same name as all the lands that are located around Vila de Cuba in Alentejo Portugal. a geographic DNA
Visited Alentejo few months back, loved it !! Hopefully I can go back to explore more of the historical side of it 🙏 thank you.

Hi guys, this sunday I am going to visit Madeira.? I read something about trail Pico to Pico, that say it si closed, fot safe. Is there any way I can find out if the mountain trails are open ahead
Sorry buddy for the late reply, it’s been bad, I’m sure you know by now, if not, extreme caution or better yet a tour guide
His real name was Salvador Fernandes ZARCO who came from a long line of Portuguese Crypto Jews,and he was a southern Portuguese from Cuba,Portugal,he spoke Castilian with a thick Portuguese accent,he visited Italy but he was NOT Italian whatsoever,plus it was said that he had very Swarthy complexion according to standard primary sources not Wikipedia.
We gotta look deeper into this Joshua for sure !! Thanx for the info buddy 🙏🤠
So, with this new found information, we find out it wasn’t the Italians, but the Portuguese that founded a land that was clearly already founded! The aboriginal people of America was & always will be of African descent! Columbus himself wrote about it in his diary! He said that they would never survive the route that the Africans take!
Brutal times weren’t they. Now I ask, what’s changed? 😂
No, we are not.
Should've walked downhill singing as Vero wanted 😆
Right?! Checked on Google maps and it was only 37min walking! 😂
@@veronicacapelinha2243 That's exactly how much I had to walk downhill to get to school every day since first grade. I had to leave home at 7:20 to make it at 8 AM. Back home it was longer 😇 The best times were in freezing cold winters when the kids could slide down the icy frozen streets 🥰
Lol I do enough walking thanx 😂
Who was the first person to 🚽🧻🚽🧻 in South Africa
Lol that’s a whole other book hey Anneke 😂
He wasn't Zarco's grandson 😂 Zarco was Columbus. By the way, no latin individual would ever be called Christopher Columbus
Lol good point 😂
💯💯
Well actually with this new found info we realise not all that is true is in history books… just depends on what side you’re on reading it’s propaganda…. Something I’ve learnt is is the more I know the less I understand….
Oh yeah bud! We forget that people lie for their own benefit, or at least some people will ;))
What they dont tell you is that he was black
Lol 😂
Your correct. They limit black people to only living in Africa when we was all over smh. King James was black king Henry, queen Charlotte and so many more Hell even Abraham Lincoln was black . But the big secret is to hide out history by all means and the Americas was full of us too but the pretendians get credit ..
He wasn't.
Shhhhhh👀👀👀😎👁️💯
Was Christopher Columbus ZARCO's GRANDSON!? Pure fake you know!
Just an idea hey 😂
Adding to that . Native Americans native African were never NEVER… Discovered until recently…. Europeans did…. Go ahead hate me
I don’t understand?
