I have come across multiple sources which speculate that Patalaloka in Hindu mythology has been mistranslated as being the underground, whereas the correct translation should be "the land under our feet" ie the Americas.
If this viewpoint is correct, doesn't it mean that ancient Indians were aware of the existance of Americas?
