El gran viaje de Colón

El viaje de Colón es en realidad la gran aventura de un marino. Un hombre que pidió ayuda a unos reyes muy ricos para adentrarse en un inmenso y desconocido océano lleno de peligros y tempestades en busca de las Indias, pero que terminó llegando a una preciosa tierra hasta entonces desconocida para los europeos a la que llamamos América. De esta forma, su viaje se convierte en una verdadera aventura de marinos. Una verdadera historia de héroes que luchan contra los elementos para realizar una hazaña escrita con letras de oro en los libros de historia de la humanidad.

Lo más increíble de mi historia es que aún mi familia sigue viva en la memoria de las personas que se interesan por mi cultura Chinchorro y que cuidan de nuestras momias. Nos han ayudado a permanecer en la tierra por miles de años y han difundido nuestra historia por el mundo entero como, por ejemplo, a través de este libro. ¡Muchas gracias por desear saber más de mí!
