"a specialist who knows the Catalan language and who has read and studied his texts have discovered some Catalanisms in writings of Columbus", maintain the investigator, author of several books on the subject. "I have made investigative journalism with this subject because I have spoken with doctors and philogists, and have visited cartographic institutes to base my thesis", Nito Verdera argues, that the great aid that has received from the philogists Marià Torres. The journalist also emphasizes the great contribution which they have supposed in the last years, the works of the historian Consolation Varela and Juan Gil, university professor of Philology of the University of Seville, that has transcribed to the present Spanish all texts of Columbus.

"the round tables can generate controversy because between the conclusions they arrive at during this encounter, and the results of the investigation of the DNA of Columbus, which they will know this year, we can approach the truth of Columbus", considers Nito Verdera, for whom the admiral was bilingual and who finishes discovering that the finger of the statue of Columbus in the beginning of the Boulevards of Barcelona, points to Ibiza and not to America, as it was thought.
