4000 Cubits
[edit]Cubit being 18 inches makes arabic mile of 4000 cubits as 6000 feet (or our 1.364 miles). Columbus read that Earth circumference (of our 24,000 miles) was 17,600 Arabic miles so that Columbus reading 17,600 miles presumes them italian not arabic (4842 feet = our 0.917 mile) as our 16,140 miles (instead of our 24,000) which is then 7680 miles less from Spain west to China and the (East) Indies of India-Asia (aka the Indonese of Indonesia).
