Christopher Columbus was proven wrong by Amerigo Vespucci because Amerigo had looked for signs but he found none. It had turned out the earth was bigger than they thought so they had to look farther than Marco polo had thought.

Were there really Greek gods in ancient Greece?
No, Remember this is Greek Mythology! Meaning it Is not real. Fair enough if you are a Christian and believe in a God, but, well, I'm not, OK. I'm an Atheist (Meaning I don't follow any particular religion) and I look at all religions as Mythology. People normally only start to class a religion as a Mythology if it is (A) dead, or (B) proved incorrect. Greek mythology is both dead and has been proved incorrect. eg You will find that if you climb up mount Olympus, you will not find the home of the gods...!
