? Where is Vinland ?
Sailor, call on all your nerve
energy and muscle - all your verve.
In dissipating wake track fine a hero's epic.
"All sail !" cried loud a pilot oceanic,
"mere puddle mighty, wild and wide Atlantic !"
FN Brown III 2007
Dawn in New England. A new day in American History
Daybreak at Winter Solstice at Narragansett, RI 8:00AM (Dagmalastad,"day-meal-time") to a Viking.
Vinland Rediscovered
One thousand years ago Leif Ericson and followers voyaged to Vinland, built houses, interacted with natives, explored, battled and returned to their homes in Greenland and Iceland with treasures. The Vinland Narratives tell all about it - and more. Read it here.
The lands described in Nordic sagas match Narragansett in Southern New England. The time matches according to carbon-14 dating. Genetics matches according to skeletal remains.
Coincidence becomes circumstantial evidence, myth becomes probable.
Our Mission: to present the facts, the evidence, the argument that Vikings lived in southern New England for years, almost five centuries before Columbus ---
---- and to give these hardy Norse seamen their deserving place in American History !
