Following his death on May 20, 1506, Columbus’s remains were initially buried in Valladolid, Spain; moved
to Seville, Spain; later moved to Santo Domingo, Hispaniola; then moved to Havana, Cuba; and finally
returned to Seville. As can be imagined from so much moving, determining his remains’ actual whereabouts
is difficult. Today, tombs exist in both Havana (shown in an early 20th-century photograph) and Seville, both
of which claim they contain the remains of Columbus, a mystery not yet solved by historians and analysts.
