Dick Edgar Ibarra Grasso

Dick Edgar Ibarra Grasso (Concordia, Entre Ríos, January 17 of 1917 - Buenos Aires, July 13 of 2000) was an Argentine researcher who explored the possibility of colonization of the Americas by several antique ethnic groups.

He suggested that the coasts of Ecuador and Peru could be found in Ptolemy and Marinus of Tyre maps on the so called Cattigara Peninsula. He based some of his assumptions on the suggestions made by Enrique de Gandía in the book "Primitivos navegantes vascos". He was considered by Paul Gallez, member of the Argentine School of Protocartography.
