Re: Cheng Ho

Dear Mr. Quarterman,

     I believe I read about Cheng Ho's voyage in the book They All Discovered 
America by Charles Michael Boland.  As soon as I have time, I will consult my 
copy.
       In South America there is pre-Inca pottery in the form of pottery 
vessels and houses that look like Japanese pottery and the theory is that 
Japanese fishing vessels were blown off course and landed in South America, 
whether with or without live people in them I do not know.  An archaeologist 
named Betty J. Meggers wrote about it.

Sincerely,
