Got me going again. In the Vinland Sagas, there is an episode where the vikings (around New England area) meet some local tribesmen (Indians or Inuits) who tell them of robed white men far to the west. The Vikings accept this with little surprise and see it is as confirmation of their own legends of a far western country called New Ireland. Seems to me there was a lot more trans-Atlantic travel than we suspect or possibly island hopping via the Aleutians.
