I have a feeling that we will eventually find that the Norse had gone further inland than we think. The St Lawrence would have been a good place to start. How far did they go? Who knows? Did they inter marry with the natives as they went westward? Those native long houses and stockades seem awful familiar.

“I have a feeling that we will eventually find that the Norse had gone further inland than we think.”

Possibly even to Mexico (if the Quetzelcoatl story has any historical basis).

Vikings are legendary for their strong constitutions and spirit of exploration and discovery, which makes me wonder...

...about the origin of "Yankee".

Hmmm!

Stone age Europeans were in North America long before “natives” were. None of our history seems real accurate. Whatever you do though, don’t upset the apple cart. We must keep paying them so they can sit on the reservations and rot.

What a disgrace that whole system is. We are the same, we should all be out learning, making income, providing and being good members of society.
