Now they need to officially admit that the so-called Newport Tower in Rhode Island is the cylindrical inner portion of an octagonal Norse church modeled after the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, an almost exact copy of a church in Cambridge, England, built about 1076.

These Norsemen were very devout Catholics, like Columbus. This was long before Garrison's Lutheran church suppers, with all that gooey Campbell's Mushroom soup holding everything together.

Sic transit gloria.

Newport Tower

They know it is Viking, but was there originally more to it? It might be nothing more than a tower, a lookout.
