Blam, if you have a ping list for stuff like this, I'd like to be on it.

New England and Canada have suspected Viking settlements and artifacts, some I have visited, but experts say there's not enough evidence.

fascinating. if those wyoming county petroglyphs and this body are what the purport to be.It has european missionaries over in the mountians of West Virginia even long before the Vikings sailed.It will change the view of world discovery.

Hey, if the Polynesians could sail around the Pacific, getting to Australia 40,000 years ago, and continuing to cover all those island chains, there's nothing too improbable about the Europeans doing it too.

"Well, I'd argue that while it will be amazing if true in WV, it would be far more amazing if they managed to get all the way to present-day Wyoming.......

without losing their scalps.

Presumably he’s a registered Democrat and has voted in every election since the declaration of independence.

Third post in a WVa thread and already a sheep joke.

I'd be the first to welcome a new discovery of pre-Columbian European contact with North America.

I remember Leif Erickson, and Mr. pre-Columbian monk... you're no Leif Erikson!

Bumping for undiscovered countries...

"New England and Canada have suspected Viking settlements and artifacts..."

The Viking presence at L'Anse aux Meadows, Newfoundland is well-established. This is a Norse settlement from around 1000 AD. See http://www.parkscanada.pch.gc.ca/parks/newfoundland/anse_meadows/anse_meadows_e.htm

Norse artifacts were also found on Baffin Island.
http://www.academicpress.com/inscight/05052000/graphb.htm

The visit of Prince Henry Sinclair of Orkney to the New World in 1398 is less well-established. He was of the Scottish and Norwegian nobility. The carving of the Westford Knight in Westford, Massachusetts is attributed to his voyage. Not proven but a fascinating story...

Must be Irish monks. The county just to the south of Wyoming County has an Erin.
