After being lost in the sea and reaching America thinking that it was India, Columbus noted in his journal that some of the native people they met there told them that black skinned people had come from the south-east in boats, trading in fold-tipped spears. Columbus also saw the metal goods from west Africa and even got some of them directly from the native Americans. Chemical analysis from these tips found by Columbus on spears in American show that the gold came from Africa.
The world was already connected. After the fall of Granada, thousands of Moors left Spain that had been their home for seven hundred years to avoid living under Spanish yoke.They migrated to Africa. Some stayed at North African coast and improved their knowledge of navigation. That knowledge may be the one used by Emperor Abubakari II to reach America. Most ancient civilizations had already circumnavigated the globe. They just did not make pf it a big deal claiming that they had discovered it.
