Maps, Myths, and Men: The Story of the Vinland Map

Rating:
Summary: The best book so far about Vinland and the Vinland map !
Review: This book gives you the latest updates regarding archaeological findings of Norse artifacts in Canada and Norse objects made of
American resources found in Greenland. It goes through all
Norse references about the Norse way of seeing the world and
suggests that the Norse used American territories for centuries
after Leif Eiriksson's discovery.
The fact that no other pre-Columbian Norse maps of Vinland
exists together with ink studies, oddities in the text on the map and script analyzes suggests that the Vinland map is a 20th
century fake made by a German priest.
If you are interested in the Viking voyages to America this book is a must in your collection and the reference section will
guide you to further interesting material about Vinland.
