This is very old news. Hell, tv show “Vikings” covered it.
The viking settlement is old news. However, she’s referring to the more precise, scientifically generated date as the new discovery. Basically, newly validating old news through science is how I’m interpreting this.
I've been hearing that for a long time now and I'm 75. I truly believe it too since the Vikings were very good sailors.
How could you have known about the date? The viking settlement is old news. However, she’s referring to the more precise, scientifically generated date as the new discovery. It validates the previous discovery of the viking settlement.
@@wctoronto Oh, I didn't know about the date, just they sailed here way before this Columbo dude! The "wood" date puts it in concrete. Thanx for your comment. By the way, I really like the term VIKINGS. They were my high school mascot. Huntington Beach-Marina H.S. CA. "Go Vikings"
and the Chinese may have discovered it before the vikings!!! Did you know the Cherokee refer to themselves as the Yellow people? Most native Americans refer to themselves are the red man... I only trained under a shaman for over a decade, and was "lovers" with a Cherokee woman who was raised traditionally by her grandmother! I have only been from one side of this continent to the other spending time with Native Americans, and training under the most powerful medicine men/shamans on the continent so what would I know??? Ha!!!
They conquered they were good at it. they didn’t have any CRT and The Vikings were not woke.
@@victorcontreras9138 I grew up in Huntington Beach I watch Colombo it was a TV show😝
I thank your a few years to late telling the news on this. Being a native we were told about the Dragon people who came to the land from the smoke of the sea aka the Viking’s.
Did you know it happened in 1021?
@@ForAnAngel Actually yes.
@@springerworks002 No you didn't.
Yea our Iroquios people have been dealing with the Norse since at least 300 years before Columbus!
SHE IS 1000 YEARS LATE.
The Native Americans were here before the Vikings...
True.
Yes, she mentioned that.
Yes, but they weren't Americans, as there was nothing called "America several thousand years ago. "Indigenous" may be a better term or there may be something else. But yes, the Europeans stole their land and nearly wiped them out. A very sad story that doesn't get told enough.
OH, NO~~~~~~ “ ASIANS ” had a settlement in North America exactly 20,000 years ago
They crossed islands between Asia and North America. Look at the islands between Asia and North America( Alaska).
Peru, South America, has ruins from 15,000 years ago.
Every person on the planet comes from the Aegean. *Terrestrial cities: Mercury (Sparta), Venus (Athens), Earth (Olympus), Mars (Pella) *asteroid belt: islands of the Aegean Sea *Non-terrestrial cities: Jupiter (Baalbek), Saturn (Halicarnasus), Uranos (Pergamum), Neptune (Troia) *Extra-terrestrial cities: Babel, Babylon, Babylonia (Mesopotamia) *Mars moved to Mesoamerica in 754BC, Vikingar (Cretan Guard) founded America in 1200BC. This comment gets censored everytime its listed because it is the truth! O-Rye-ons!
It amazes me how many people commented on here without actually listening to what she said or did not comprehend what was said.

ignorance is bliss!
@@chrisquinn394 what I've seen many comment about, is that they already knew the Vikings came over before Columbus, so therefore it is not new news. Which tells me those people just read the title I didn't bother listening to what she said about how scientists determined the exact year
This is old news.
Nope. The viking settlement is old news. However, she’s referring to the more precise, scientifically generated date as the new discovery.
For those who misinterpreted this as “old news”. She is speaking about the accuracy of the scientifically generated date as the new discovery, not the early viking settlement well before Columbus’ arrival - that’s old news. Basically, validating the (previously discovered) settlement through a precise dating technique rather than a range.
Yeah we know but it's still Old news... I think it's the way she's acting like it just happened yesterday
@@getbbudded23 If you and others “know”, then how is it still old news? 🤔 I don’t think you comprehend what I said. 1021 AD and the Carbon-14 dating technique is NEW news. This is the first time researchers have suggested an exact date. How would you and others know this before the scientists who made the discovery and provided this evidence?
Previously, only a range or an estimate of 1000 AD was given only based on a huge blast of radiation from the Sun that hit Earth, which was known to have taken place in the year 992 AD.
Plus, what is the point or relevance in assuming she’s reacting to this as if it happened yesterday? This has been reported in different media outlets and it did occur recently/‘yesterday’. Maybe she is a history and/or science buff. Lol! 🤷♀️
@@wctoronto 😆 🤣 😂 😹 is that why you can read national geographics from the 90's that already give that date?
No this is old news . This information is old even the time dating which has been understood

Leif Erikson and Erik the Red were the first Western people to "discover" the Americas. Although, the real credit goes to the nameless migrants from Siberia who are the ancestors of modern-day Native Americans, as they were the first humans _by far_ to have settled these two continents --- a minimum of 10,000 years ago (although it may have been much longer).
Except those migrants from Siberia aren't Westerners. They're more likely to be native people of the eastern parts of modern day Russia, which means that they are East Asians or Central Asians.
It's a lot longer than 10,000 years , we're going back 25-30,000 most likely. As soon as artifacts from Coronado Beach are verified the number will reach back to $25,000 years on the record.
@Palepride Worldwide Ice bridge was only one of the ways cultures got here from around the globe

Newsflash: the earliest evidence of humans in the Americas dates back 130,000 years ago. Look it up.
It's been well documented that the Vikings visited Newfoundland way before Columbus sailed from Europe. Here's what the BBC said "It has long been known that Europeans reached the Americas before Columbus's arrival in the New World in 1492." Now you know why I pay attention to the BBC and CBC and ignore American media. The hype from the paper in Nature is that they used a new dating methodology that allowed for a more accurate date. Did ABC provide fake news? or are their employees examples of the American education system? You decide.
No, not fake news. Just misinterpretation by viewers and the writers/host not wording it more appropriately, which probably led to audience misinterpretation. Nothing mind numbing. Nonetheless, a new scientific dating technique is probably celebrated by scientists and is a huge win/accomplishment.
What may be seemingly a small discovery to you and those not closely involved may be critical to others - all discoveries are not insignificant, but eventually lead to progression and greater advancements.

Where they the tall anglo looking dudes that where around when the spanish first landed in Florida? But had died off when they returned a few decades later? How about all the "afro" looking statues around central and south america?
We have already known this
Lol I knew this a long time ago

I feel like the Chinese came to America before the vikings in search for the dragon king was sent out by the first emperor. Who knows. But fact is Japan was modified on that trip. 🤣😂
china did not have ocean worthy ships , they were only capable of sailing their own coastlines
I think that's a very good possibility

@@dogwater290 lol you sure about that? You know you can Google and find a lot of info now days
As a first generation America of Norwegian and Danish decent, already knew this. How about a Norse History and Appreciation Month. Our Motto: "OUR ANCESTORS RAPED YOUR ANCESTORS". Celebrated with such activities as, Drunken Ax Throwing, Wench Carrying, Monestary Raiding and Battle Reenactments,
How would you know about the scientifically generated date? That’s a recent discovery. Lol! She’s referring to that - Not the vikings early North American settlement. That is old news.
Everybody knew this I thought LOL
You may have known that they came here, but what you and everyone else didn't know was the exact year. Now we do know and can be proved scientifically
Why is this a surprise? I thought it's a well known thing.

These are important archeological discoveries - but I think the content suffers a lot from the misleading framing of this news piece.
As to who was first - I can point to the inscription on the back of the Leif Eiriksson statue which stands in Reykjavik, Iceland - and which appears as background graphics the video. The statue was a gift to Reykjavik from the US to commemorate the 1000th anniversary of the Althing, the Icelandic parliament, which was founded in 930. It reads:
Leifur Eiricsson
Son of Iceland
Discoverer of Vinland
The United States of America
to the People of Iceland
on the one thousandth
anniversary of the Althing
AD 1930
😁
What!!!!! New Finland It’s not a US so the comparison makes no sense whatsoever just to talk about something
Newfoundland
Fjb
Recorded! She meant to say recorded because she didn't know factually who first came here. She said it at the end as I was writing. Immediately I thought how misleading.
That was Eivor and his raven clan, obviously, dah! 😉
did you mean Eric The Red? Hello???
@@tjlightningbolt You mean his son Leifur
Pssshhh I saw this on the show “Vikings” 😜

@@wctoronto duhh
I'll do you one better, Ireland and Scotland are part of North America geologically and tectonically.
Oh wow 😯
I appreciate abc, Not saying vikings "discovered" .
How is this stunning?. I was taught this in fifth grade and that was 1985.
Bjorn Skaaaaal !!!! 🦍✋🏿
Let's go Brandon!!
A better story is ancient Egyptian artifacts in the Grand Canyon ..
That part....100%.
This is old news. I knew this as a 5 year old I'm 42

This is actually decades old news
1000 years but only one quarterback worth talking about. 🤷♂️😊
and they landed at Plymouth rock.
No they did not landed at Plymouth Rock yet because they have to land at Jamestown first and that doesn’t happen until a 1606 so no they did not go to Plymouth yet
The war against Columbus continues
You mean the truth?
He deserves every bit of the negative press he gets bro he was a a mindless Savage.
Well cry more
Do we hate the Vikings now, too?
Vikings were awesome where do you get that from?
If youre racist
You dont say...
wow
Scandinavians have been saying this for like over 200 years right?
NOT thousands of years before
Fallen angels reference
A new discovery??? A new study??? We have known about this for decades now....Canada even has a national historical site for it....L'Anse aux Meadows.....glad to hear more artifacts are being discovered or that new research is being done....but 1000 year old Viking settlements in North America is old news, so to speak.
EXACTLY 🖐👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
It's about time.
Lol the Egyptians were here before them.
Yeah we've known this for years now sweetheart where you been 😂😂
How could you have known about the date for years? The viking settlement is old news. However, she’s referring to the more precise, scientifically generated date as the new discovery.
@@wctoronto Ok one more time, the point being that we have known about this for quite a while. The fact that they got it down to one specific date or isn't that big of a deal anymore and she's acting as though it is okay that's all I'm saying. And the datx bad really close to what we were thinking anyways few years back. So you have a wonderful day 😀
Vikings arrived in Kensington, MN in the year 1362 as dated on the stone. Central MN 100 years before Columbus.
The bible told us this.
Frick Cristobal Colón!
What difference does it make who got here first? Deal with today's issues / problems like an adult.
History is just as important as the present and future - perhaps even more so. Without learning from the past and developing ways to provide more accurate information, how can we improve and make a better tomorrow? For example, how can medicine and environmental science progress without collecting data from the past to continuously improve methodologies, tools and solutions to life’s biggest issues? Historical data and achieving accuracy is critical. Solving problems is a progressive process. It often doesn’t happen ‘overnight’ nor without relying on the past. That’s what an “adult” does.
@@wctoronto history is important but SHOULDN'T be the all
@@ohwell1095 I NEVER said that nor did she. You’re either having difficulty comprehending and/or misinterpreting things. I said past, present and future are all important…all are closely linked in many ways and dependent on each other. I guess you changed your stance about history as being important. You originally sounded quite defiant and appeared to have a forward/present and future siloed view. You also seemed very dismissive about the significance of the ability to carbon-date with more accuracy (that was the new discovery, not the viking settlement itself). Like I said, each discovery (no matter how insignificant it may seem to you) leads to progression over time.
I manage process improvements for a living. I cannot do so without gathering info/data from the past. I cannot problem solve and design a future state process without fully understanding the past/current state. I also need metrics to measure these improvements. You may have heard of the term/best practice, “Lessons Learned”. Life’s critical problems also works in a similar manner, so we can try to avoid wasting time/money/resources making past mistakes or wander aimlessly without planned purpose. All of this points back to the past.
@@wctoronto not everyone has your problems with life
this "news" is soooo oooooold
No, not true. The year 1021 AD is the first exact date given through Carbon-14 dating technique. It’s indeed new news. That’s what she’s referring to, not the part about the vikings settling in North America before Columbus - that’s old news. Previously, only a range was given or an estimate of 1000 AD based on when the huge blast of radiation from the Sun hit Earth in 992 AD.
@@wctoronto bad opening then. whatever. I hate how useless news stations are. report on something that matters or do a documentary segment and stop wasting people's time
And it’s done 🖐🖐🖐bye bye Christopher C. 🖐🖐🖐🖐
Let’s hear the numbers
Math is racist so why are u guys pumping numbers
Wtf are you even rambling on about?
She said the indigenous people didn't have at the time then says the first HUMANS arrived 😔😔😔 wtf
I learned that in Elementary school the 60s. I also learned that the Vikings conquered North America. Just like we conquered America get over it
"They conquered north america"? Wouldnt there have been pure europeans here if they conquered the entire continent
@@MomoKunDaYo that’s correct the whole planet
Africans we’re the first Americans do your research and stop trying to discredit the African contribution to the world. We were the first to sail the seas way before another race in the human family existed
Ahh and here we have the delusional Black supremacists making claims with literally no proof in history, next your gonna say Native Americans are actually black and we stole there land
"THE FIRST TIME THE GLOBE HAD BEEN FULLY ENCIRCLED BY HUMANS " how is that not dismissive of INDIGENOUS People?
@Nicolas Labranche LMAOOOOOOO I'm not even gonna give a coherent answer to this joke.

and who gives a....lol...more bs...slow news day huh
