So Columbus didn't discover America too, because there were at least few civilizations living there already. All continents (except Antarctica) have their indigenous human population, but discovery is often used from the perspective of western civilization. It's only a matter of the point of view.
Actually, I find it perfectly reasonable to believe that during these hundreds years of naval shipping, there were at least some cases of adventurous, misguided or lost ships reaching the coast of Americas. What I don't understand, what's the big deal about that?
