  4. Let us not forget that the Vikings led by Leif Erickson from #Greenland were living at l’Anse aux Meadows in #Newfoundland&Labrador in #Canada as far back as 1021. It was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1978. frametoframe.ca/in-the-footste #Vinland #USA

  5. Vor etwa 1000 Jahren standen plötzlich Grassodenhäuser an der Küste Neufundlands.
    Wikinger sollen hier gelebt, geschmiedet, gesegelt haben.

  7. Today we had a long boat ride then a drive out to #Vinland. We went to the #NymphCafe and spent some time at #lanseauxmeadows national park. The National Park was so beautiful.

  8. Good Morning #Canada
    I've been binge watching Viking related series and movies lately, so a virtual visit to L'Anse aux Meadows is appropriate. This archaeological site, first excavated in the 1960s, was a Norse settlement dating to approximately 1,000 years ago. The site, located on the northernmost tip of Newfoundland, existed for about a decade and served primarily as a base for exploration. On my bucket list to visit.

  10. When the explorer Cabot got to Newfoundland in 1497, Columbus had already discovered America, so, it was definitely possible that this was the same land that Columbus had discovered. Still the name Newfoundland eventually did stick. Perhaps the British had every intention of using it as an excuse to settle and trade in the Americas, instead of just letting Spain and Portugal do whatever they wanted there.

    But, perhaps, the British knew the history of this large island. They could have heard about the Viking sagas of settling a new colony past Iceland, past Greenland. A place they called Vinland. If these sagas were true, the Vikings were the first to discover these lands for Europeans.

    Maybe the British tried to bury these discoveries, also, by calling it Newfoundland. This way they had a better claim to its shores and all that fish in the Grand Banks off Newfoundland. Better to ignore the rumoured Vinland and claim this land for themselves.

    It was only in the modern era when it was discovered that the Vikings left some remains in L’Anse aux Meadows. This was authenticated by archaeologists and is still the only known Viking Settlement in North America.

    It’s possible that the indigenous Beothuk drove them out.

    Could the British have guessed this? Is that why the Beothuk became exinct in British times? Did the British deliberately kill them with diseases and starvation (the British overtook the coasts and left the Beothuk with little access to the rich fishing)? So the British in their turn wouldn’t be wiped out by the Beothuk?

    Or did the British wipe out the Beothuk in revenge for the wiping out of the Vikings in North America?Was there some secret cabal of white power, even back then?

    And wouldn’t the Beothuk be more likely to call this island, Oldfoundland? Who knows how many thousands of years earlier it was for the Beothuk and their ancestors to find it.

    Ahh, Newfoundland. Your statement of a name just leads to so many questions and possibilities about it.

  11. Gestern #Cartaventura #Vinland ausprobiert. Schön gestaltet und teilweise nette erzählerische Ideen, aber insgesamt fanden wir es zu „zufällig“ und unlogisch springend in der Geschichte. #brettspiel #boardgames

  12. Gestern war wieder ein erfolgreicher #Brettspiel-Abend. Zu zweit haben wir #AeonsEnd gespielt, zwei Runden #TopCap (ohne Bild) und eine recht erfolgreiche Runde #Cartaventura #Vinland. ☺️
