Humans evolved in Africa and began spreading out from the Horn of Africa region about 58,000 years ago. This was a natural process of expansion of families and communities occurring in waves and with complex interactions of populations. It is believed that humans spread into North America from Asia during the most recent ice age when the continents were joined for several thousand years. So there was no discovery of America just as there was no discovery of India or Australia. When people refer to the discovery of America they may refer to the time when knowledge of the new world was brought back to the general population of western Europe. This would more accurately be considered the time when Europeans in general became aware of what is now America.

Sir,
America has already been discovered.
If you still think ''Who will Discover ameriaca'' the answer should be 'NO ONE'
It is a past event.
I think you have put the question with some other intention or by mistake used that format.
If you really want the name of the Person that led the expedition to find new places,especially India and ended up finding What is Called America,He is Christopher Columbus.

Leif Eriksson (Old Norse: Leif Eríksson)
(c. 970 – c. 1020) was a Norse(Viking) explorer and the first European thought to have landed in North America—more specifically, the region that would become Newfoundland and, by later extension, Canada.
Then it was rediscovered by Christopher Columbus.
The first human though who discovered America was a member of the Eurasian tribes which colonized the new continent through Siberia.

America has been discovered several times:

The first time (or times) thousands of years ago by people from Asia
Around the year 1000 AD by the vikings (Leif Erikson), they had two colonies on Greenland and have been to New Foundland (which they called Vinland).
In 1492 AD a fleet led by Cristobal Colon (Columbus), discovered America for the Europeans.

We all know about the beautiful place America and its world trade centre. But we do not know who discovered it. Let me tell you. It was Christopher Coulombus who discovered it.

Of course there were Natives already living on the continent, and all the history books will tell you that Chris Columbus discovered America, but in actuality another man had already been there before Chris. But Chris was funded and backed by the Queen, so obviously they would accept him as the discoverer.

how can you discover a place where people live. that would be like if i took a boat to africa and said hah I discoverd this. And colombus never did make it to america he made it to the west indies. and lost several pieces of his body in the process of not bringing back promised gold to the queen who funded his journeys. He was a failure who was killed in the end. America was probably first discovered by very old ancestors of ours. america was named after an italian map maker named amerigo vespucci
