An unidentified person opens a door in an ornate tomb in the cathedral in Seville, southern Spain, Monday June 2, 2003, where a medal box allegedly contains the bones of Christopher Columbus. Researchers are to compare the DNA from these bones and other purported bones of Columbus buried in a monument in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, to those of family members to end a dispute over where the explorer himself is buried.
