It is now an established fact of history that the Norse rovers had found and made a few expeditions to North America long before Columbus. For the historian nowadays to look upon that Norse discovery as a myth or less than a certainty is to confess that he has never read the Sagas. The Norsemen came and even camped in the New World, before the year 1000 but they only camped. They built no towns and practically added to the world's knowledge nothing at all.
