Snorri's not dead... he's just pining for the fjords!

<Snorri Thorfinnsson, the first person of European descent born in the New World.

Of course the PC left has a new scapegoat, it's all Snorri's fault.

The building is a classic German fortress longhouse like the Great Hall of Beowulf,?

How come this is breaking news in a two bit paper in IOwa, and no where else?

“We had always assumed that the original house must be under the standing modern turf house, in the very same spot and therefore mostly destroyed,” said Sigridur Sigurardottir, the museum’s director. “But now we have found out that it was in our museum hay field all along, just under the surface.”

Obviously these guys have never had a house built. Usually you don't tear down the house you live in before you build the new one....

Where I live there is the Virginia Dare Winery named for supposedly the first European born in America (1587). I wonder if the Winery will change it's name to Snorri Thorfinnsson Wines.
