Manuel da Silva Rosa (born 1961)[1] is a Portuguese American writer and independent researcher and lecturer on the life of Christopher Columbus. Rosa received a PhD in Insular and Atlantic History (XV-XX Centuries) from Azores University (April 12, 2023) with a dissertation titled CRISTOFORO COLOMBO versus CRISTÓBAL COLÓN Cristoforo  Colombo, the weaver from Genoa, was not Don Crsitóbal Colón, the navigator from Ibéria'.'[2]

In his latest book, Portugal na História, Uma Identidade (Lisbon, 2023) Professor João Paulo Oliveira e Costa describes Rosa's work as scrupulous, "No estudo recente de Manuel Rosa, que, respeitando escrupulosamente as fontes, deixa clara a impossibilidade de Colón ter nascido no seio de uma família de tecelões genoveses.”.[3]

His books COLUMBUS - the Untold Story and ""COLUMBUS versus COLÓN" are self-published by the Association Cristóvão Colón[4] which is "a non-profit organization created to aggregate funds to assist Dr. Manuel Rosa in his continued scientific research of Christopher Columbus' life and the propagation of that award-winning research through lectures, media and printed materials." "Copyright Association Cristovao Colon and Manuel Rosa 1991-2024'".
