Yet the New World may long have been partly known; Besoldus; Japheth origin; Fuller and others
Yet it is more likely that the islands, and the adjacent continent of that New World, were also long ago, many ages before, not wholly unknown to our world, as the polyhistor Christopher Besoldus, professor of Tubingen, demonstrates at length in his Political Discourses on the growth of empire, chapter 4, year 10; and the inhabitants are believed to have been of Cymbric or ancient Teutonic and Scythian origin from Japheth the son of Noah (Genesis 9:19, 27). Compare Nicholas Fuller, Theological Miscellanies book 1, chapter 4; Vandermylius On the Belgian Language chapter 25; Acosta book 1, chapter 24; Claude Duret, History of Languages chapter 78; Peter Bertius in his contracted maps of America; Johannes Goropius Becanus in the Antwerp Origins, in the Niloscopium; Lipsius, Stoic Physiology book 2, dissertation 19.
