Description
Was America discovered by Norwegian Vikings, and did they establish Norse colonies in North-America? And if so, why and how did they disappear? In this book, the author gives an overview of the discussion thas has been raging ever since the Kensington Rune Stone was discovered - or was claimed to have been discovered - in 1898. And what about other rune stones that have appeared in the USA during the last century - are they real or fake? The author examines this and many other issues, like traces in the Indian culture, old maps and buildings, and of course Medieval documents. Together, all this material gives an overwhelming evidence that an extensive Norse exploration or even permanent settlements may have taken place. Text in Norwegian.
