Hmmm any chance maybe that it was a carthaginian ship?
Bought a dvd about hannibal while ago and it showed that the first roman fleet was basically taken from the carthaginian models.
One got stuck on sicily I believe, the romans pounced on it immediatly ofcourse, took it apart and they were able to amass a large naval force in a very short time using the exact same model as the carthaginian one.
Or maybe some roman ship got lost on the sea, they couldn't find their way around and accidently stumbled upon america.
With a weird name as quatzalcoatl (maybe they couldn't understand a roman inscription, but formed from it that name?) and the bearded white skinned bloke, it could be possible.
Ofcourse for northern europeans, they aren't really that light skinned, but if they thought cortés (a spaniard) was the second coming of quatzalcoatl, of which they also though was "light" skinned", then I don't see why they couldn't take a roman for "light" skinned aswell ...
