There are 14 living descendants of Da Vinci

A research by researchers shows that there are 14 people who claim to be descendants of Leonardo da Vinci, the creator of the Mona Lisa and more.

They claim not without reason, to be part of the family of genius. Human Evolution magazine has published a genealogical tree that goes through 21 generations and four ramifications.

Researchers write that these results have been eagerly awaited from a historical point of view as they will help researchers scientifically search for the roots of his genius, to find additional information on his physical abilities and on his premature aging, as he is said to have happened.

The researchers collected data from historical documents in public and private archives and live accounts on social networks from Da Vinci's descendants.

No further information is provided on living offspring in order to protect their privacy.
