Around the turn of the second millennium A.D., Norse explorers explored and established a colony on the eastern coast of Canada. Tales of these adventures were eventually put to parchment, forming the foundations for texts known today as the Icelandic sagas. A thousand years later, in 1960, a Norwegian couple named Helge and Anne Stine Ingstad searched for the ruins of the legendary Viking colony on the northern tip of Newfoundland's Great Northern Peninsula. Following a tip from a local, they discovered a cluster of Norse ruins near the village of L'Anse aux Meadows- verification of the sagas written so many centuries ago.
Farley Mowatt wrote a great story about Innuit contact with the Vikings.
It sold well, but Farley Mowat was not an archaeologist or a biologist or a historian. He was a story teller. A popularizer. He found NL fascinating, too, as I do. @John Barber.
@@dinkster1729 what r u trying to say
Викинги в Канаде это очень интересно 🇷🇺👍🇪🇦
In Mowat's book 'The Alban Quest' or 'The Farfarers', he writes about contact with the Dorset people not the Inuit.
The "Navigatio" by St Brendan was written in the 7th Century about his voyages to Canada. (Columbus had a copy). He wrote that he was not the first and other monks had sailed to North America, Iceland etc. This is where the vikings learned about it.
❤️
in general, agree... the Vikings followed the first "wave" of explorers and scattered settlers - not to minimize their accomplishments in repeated navigation in any way!
1,000 years before Columbus and 500 years before the Vikings.
That is such a dumb misunderstanding. Voyage of St Brenan does not document finding Canada it documents finding 30 different islands all of whom are fiction. There was an island with an ethiopian devil, an island that sunk into the sea when someone lit a fire. Please do any bit of reserch before you post misleading comments
The climate was different 1000 years ago, you need to look at where grapes could have grown then, not where they grow now
yup I'm thinking nova Scotia or maybe towards the st Lawrence area Quebec now
Quite true. I live in Ontario Canada and wild grapes grow all over the northeast. Birds love to eat the grapes and they spread the seeds everywhere. I have seen places where there were no grape vines then a few years later the place was covered with them, especially old fence rows around farm fields. Farley Mowat says he found an account by a French botanist who found grape vines in Newfoundland in the 1600s. In the period 800 - 1400 the climate was warmer than it is now and there were vineyards in England and other northern areas where they died out later. It is quite possible there were wild grapes growing in Newfoundland in 1000 AD.
Thats true , it was warmer then .
Grapes would have grown easily in Nova Scotia at that time .
the french worried that the English would produce a better wine. Thank you I'm glad someone else reads history.
@@mrdanforth3744 Have you been to that area of NL. NL is a lot cooler than you might think given its latitude. Grape vines are not plentiful at all now. I'd say there were probably many, many berries though. That may have given the fanciful author the idea of saying there were many grapevines. I was in the Grey Island in the summer of 1977 (late July and Early August). We were wearing heavy outdoor sweaters. Also, the water was so cold when we waded at a little beach that we couldn't stay in the water long. Nobody wanted to go swimming. I'd say that grapevines were fanciful.
Alberta Here - thanks for this history
Thanks for this video. Best regards from a descendant of the Vikings, born in Odins city in Denmark 👍🗡🇩🇰
Proof that a Viking Summer break / Vacation was the Best!
I grew up in St Anthony which is just a few kilometers from the Viking settlement in Vinland. I have been to the site a few times. I am no historian or an intellectual but I couldn't help wondering why "here", Its a barren spot with little shelter from winds, forests are a good distance away and its fairly lifeless in the way of wild animals but just a short distance away were natural harbors, forests, etc. Better still is the fact that if they sailed another couple of days south the climate improves dramatically. Sail a week more and your in the St Lawrence river or even North Eastern US. I just couldn't see why they would choose to stay in that spot. just an opinion from someone who has actually been there.
They probably just used that spot as temporary base. It is likely they went further south and even inland through the rivers and great lakes. The thing with Newfoundland however, is that this settlement is the only one that have actually been proven to be Norse. The climate were warmer 1000 years ago as well - which made the whole area more livable.
@@westerneurope1752 Yes. That spot is remote and relatively uninhabited today so proof of Viking presence has survived. They may well have been in other places further south.
Well they came from Iceland and Greenland , so the viking settlement in the beginning must have felt fantastic to them. Regardless, this is part of history we still need to explore
All they needed to live off of was the sea
The Vikings always lived in the northern parts of each country they took over lol they love ice and snow
Certainly well done and incredibly informative, which is typical of Pines and Maples. Considering these were Scandinavian tribes-people of the Middle Ages, it really is unbelievable. It is a part of world history of which I must shamefully claim great ignorance. I plan to watch this a few more times and do peripheral research from there.
😆
Vikings to Newfoundland should be the videos title.
Were there Vikings in Newfoundland?
Around A.D. 1000, the medieval Norse (Vikings) established the first European settlement, on the northern coast of Newfoundland, but they only stayed for a brief period. So... jada :)
@@VikingNorway-pb5tm829 it had norse activity there for about a century and was built, circa 1000 AD and had a capacity to support 160+ people its in l'anse meadows in newfoundland, now we dont know how many people would have lived there at one given time but anywhere from 30 to around 100 with 160 being its max capacity that we know at the moment until we uncoverthe other long houses, either way it was a decent size settlement and fits the description of leif eriksons settlement, there are restored Greenlandic norse style long houses and other structures of the same style, it was norse greenlanders there is no doubt about it. Also what leif thought was grapes was actually gooseberries they make great wine to, they look alot like grapes as well and they are everywhere in newfoundland
Hey this is better than most of the large budget stuff coming from big producers....very well informed.
Except at 40 seconds in when they incorrectly say that Cabbot landed in Labrador in 1496.
He actually landed at Bonavista, Newfoundland in 1497.
Great video, thanks for posting
Excellent Canadian history. Thank you! Plz, do Samuel Du Champlain next!
Agreed! Champlain would certainly be quite the historical spotlight. Moreover, if you haven't already seen it, I would highly recommend the LaSalle Documentary by the Pines and Maples team. Rene-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle, in my opinion, was an explorer in his own league; possibly unmatched by anyone else on the North American continent.
@@zingwilder9989 Oooh! I will. Thank you 🍻
@@sarablueshoes6950 Hi ma'am, not to interrupt, I saw the post / comment, just had to say, Yes, that is uniquely a neat suggestion....
I find it nearly impossible now of days, to get any real full true history without it being edited or leaked as parts pieced together.
& May I add, they do have more than a few researcher's out there, historical foundations historians who love real history & full truths no matter how ugly or beautiful it is.
I've got friends who is into that mega over time daily searching, so ....I just thought as a unknown I'd share something....
Btw this is my alias name Theo or -Theordor , just call me P, Kay's....
I'd strongly advise anyone who likes history to watch things like the channel called our history, some of it is accurately true and a lot of other channels have some truth to it to, like history channel, and I found oddly things like ice age discovery channels to be very close to accurate as will get to the ancient past, an yes ma'am, you are reading from a very humble man of God who sweetly welcomes all 7.9 billion & hopes for the best always however history teaches us so much an I am one who is a well in the insight to history person to speak with, due to facts I gather all evidence before allowing it to be just so, and apply exact accurate dates to all things that will follow it's time lines long before ever letting a full doc to get away with just stating any old anything, & I believe if I said this right, ma'am, pines & maple is very accurate on 90.00 % of there docs, but that's uniquely different than most others who just state what's being taught in school systems or incorporated for mass media to indoctrinate to society, but actually history.
Just wanted to drop in a friendly letter for you an say hi : ) .
Hoping you an yours and your days are always blessed ones
~Theo
another theroy of the grape claim is that they were mistaking blueberries as the do grow the size of small grapes and are very plentifull even today i can only imagine what they would be like then
Yes blueberries, that makes sense. Good thinking Evan.
They may also have been wild grapes. They are very small.
They were not mistaken. Blueberrys are very common in Norway and the rest of Scandinavia. They could tell the difference.
@@westerneurope1752 Indeed, they knew their wine, all right
@@westerneurope1752 If the writing was fanciful, the berries that are plentiful might have given the author the idea of talking about Vinland the Good (Vine Land the Good) to encourage settlement.
I hear the Vinland is translated to Vine land. In Norway you can fing places like Granvin, where the part Gran meaning spruce , and vin is tranlate to "natural grass covered field". I will not deny the intreprtation suggested here; that the name Vinland relate to grapes and vine, but it is interresting to know that vin can have a differnt meaning in Nordic.
But yet: the use of vin meaning a meadow is only known as a postfix, and not as a prefix. Thus the vin of Vinland is logically closer to the explanation and stories of winegrapes
Its well known the Icelanders have been here in manitoba since the days of the saga
The Norse were likely settled anywhere anywhere they had access to glacial run-off, where they originated. I would argue that ‘Vine’ means stream, or sweet water. Water with zero dissolved solids and no bacterial growth is a great contributor to health. It was also part of Norse religion to drink only sweet water, glacial run-off and to establish their communities around this resource. ‘Vinland’ was a land of fresh water streams, as is apparent from the locales chosen by Viking explorers, immediately south of Greenland. The whole thing about grapes is Americo-centric nonsense applied to myth. They were looking for glacial run-off to establish their colonies, failing that, would gladly seek out fast running fresh water, such as you would find in L’Anse-Aux-Meadows.
Your theses is rather odd. Have you every been to Canada's eastern coast? There is fresh running water just about everywhere.
You stated "..would gladly seek out fast running fresh water, such as you would find in L’Anse-Aux-Meadows.". Have you been to L'Anse aux Meadows or looked at the area on Google Maps or Google Earth? It sits on a swampy headland. No fast running fresh water there.
The historic site is situated right beside a flowing river, which is bound to have significant run-off.
@@effingsix3825 It is a very small stream running for less than a mile out of Black Duck Pond. All the land around the settlement is low, rather flat, bogs, and small ponds. Lots of peat sod available for building their houses.
And your point is?
Can’t believe we still observe Columbus Day. I submitted a dna sample few years back on a whim. Thought I was a “double dipped” German. To my surprise, 80% Scandinavian. Norway, Sweden, Denmark some German and some UK. Who knew!
Would you be happy if Columbus Day is morphed into Native American day as it is soon to be? Well?
Only Americans observe that silly holiday lol not here in Canada. Your Columbus day in USa is our Canadain Thanksgiving long weekend lol
This was beautiful. Well done!
Well done! You managed to pronounce my name correctly. Helluland is most likely Baffin Island. Hellu is the genetive of the word hella which means slab.
No adverts 🙌
How about further south to New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Rhode Island?
According to the latest season of The Curse of Oak Island the Vikings were in Nova Scotia around the same time that they were in Newfoundland
I have a special love for canadians who have Nordic heritage it is beyond my understanding
Very well done! Why do I hear Irish music in the background? Tracks by Wardruna or Hedningarna would have been better. Also, we should remember that the climate was much warmer during the ‘Viking Age’ - it was only later that the ‘Little Ice Age’ set in, destroying the Greenland colony (other commentators below have also stated this). Grapes, wild wheat and other varieties of game might well have been abundant in Newfoundland where, as we know, the only firm archaeological evidence of Viking settlement has so far been found.

They were stopped at the Canadian/USA border. All their exploring had to be kept in Canada. This way, they would not meet the Irish fishermen who had been in the what later would be known as New England for generations.
John Cabbot's memoirs state that when he arrived at the mouth of the (latter known as St. Lawrence) river, he encountered countless Basque fishermen fishing! This is 1496, for crying out load! Apparently the working class folks had done the "discovery" a long before the effete and the elite!
The old nordic word vin dosen´t refer to wine. Vin= (vång/äng) means meadow, so vinland refer to grasslands/ meadowland
I’ve heard this argument before , but either way it’s the same conclusion. That it’s Newfoundland being that it’s full of grass land and prairies, and decently full with Berry’s and wild grapes . Saying this as a Canadian who’s bin.
Vineyard must mean meadowyard.so where did the grapes come from.
@@JoeSmith-zg7in probably cuz the German guy in the saga mentioned the grapes , and people read that and thought vin = vine instead of doing their research
@@JoeSmith-zg7in Well I referred to the old Nordic/norse word vin not the south european word vin=wine. these days vin in e.g.Swedish is wine, but a thousand years ago vin could mean Meadow or Wine, like e.g. (right or right left or left)
That is just a theory cooked up by Helge Ingstad. It was not enough to find s norse settlement, but he had to prove it was the Vinland of the sagas. So he had to explain the name and the lack of grapes.
If you liked this you will love the Oera Linda Book!
Great job on the transcription and reading of the Norse Saga's, but the discovery of a butternut shows that Vineland is probably in New Brunswick:
"The discovery of three butternuts and a piece of butternut wood at L’Anse Aux Meadows have led archaeologists to look at New Brunswick as a possible site for Vinland. The piece of butternut wood was a burl; burl in Old Norse is mösurr.
Butternuts grow in hardwood forests and require a long and warm growing season. They have never grown in Newfoundland. The nearest place they occur wild is northeastern New Brunswick. They also grow in the St. Lawrence Valley as far east as St. Paul’s Bay east of Quebec City. They are not native to either Prince Edward Island or Nova Scotia although some have been planted there in modern times."

Wait a minute. Is that H John Benjamin?
It wasn't Canada when the Vikings visited ..it was the First Nations. The Danish vikings ( ya they were half/half Danish/Norse by 1100 ad. ) visited what is today Greenland too. There were migrant hunters native there before them too.

@@rayhilchey6706 dr. Crawford of the University of Colorado. He's the one that translated the poetic Edda to English. He said the wording in the Kingston Stone was not correct for the time.
@@louisgunn8471 That is one opinion, there are others. My brother in law, Prof. John Dickson, before he retired was Chairman of the geology department at Queens University in Kingston. He was telling me of one of his research professors who was digging on an undisturbed glacial gravel deposit in Eastern Ontario,. He came across the skeleton of a horse that had been buried in a standing posture. Since it was an undisturbed deposit it must have been buried by humans. A subsequent radiocarbon dating gave approx. 900 AD. John told me of it and added that there was no place in academia to publish the find. Other European artifacts have been discovered in Ontario. Barry Fell attributes the Peterborough petroglyphs to Europeans and there is a school of thought saying that native copper nodes common to Northern Michigan were used for the European bronze age.
@@rayhilchey6706 I believe that the Scandinavians came to America. Sir Henry Sinclair was area of Scotland was part of Norway before it given to Scotland as a wedding present. He was supposed to have made a trip to North America. Columbus sailed in the North Sea so he could have gotten a idea from other sailor. It's really not that far from Greenland to North America.
The world was a lot warmer back then.

I know I think Al Gore suppresses the truth. really. There are mooring holes bored in rock faces in natural coves and bays. its the way Norsemen anchored their ships. the boreholes are (at that time 1960) 13 feet higher than what would be needed This was in New England and Newfoundland

@@brenton2561 I believe Darwinian selection also plays a huge role.
A good first effort to bring "Living History" to the fore. But, perhaps it might help to rehearse the script before rushing through it. Also, researching the proper pronunciation of unfamiliar places and names would be a good thing too. Nice start.
I live in Newfoundland. Born and raised, and I live 12 hours of driving from the only known settlement that the Norse have in North America
@@bleachmaster99 Cool!
Also, researching the pronunciation of common words.
I was mystified by the mispronunciation. The narrator has a Canadian accent, but pronounces some things phonetically. Makes me wonder if this is actually an AI bot program. Growing up in eastern Canada, we had history lessons out the ying-yang and the pronunciation of common Canadian places is pretty basic. And I can't imagine an Anglophone mispronouncing "sword" as it looks.
I'm only 64 generations longed in north America native mixed race man of God & thank you for this video! Yes in 729 A.D My Viking ancestor was tossed aside from his kingdom an moved far away from his Scandinavia an greenlend an Iceland, to north America in physical proof regardless of what they said, the Nordic red haired darker Caucasian skin toned green eyed man named Leif Erikson was not Leif the Great his grandfather or Leif the Red or Ragnar the Red, just Leif Erikson the explorer who founded north America in the north of right on the edge of North Carolina, in 729 A.D a blood kin to Leif Erikson the Red yes, still a Scandinavian / Norwegian man, & funny enough that Italian Monster Columbus the explorer in 1599 A.D at age 28 founded south America thinking he found North India by sheer mistake and called them all native Indians, but he was just a explorer with a very high paid corrupt wealthy man's paid and pampered royalty that was strictly taught superb education of the sea and sadly enough since he *"ONLY DISCOVERED"* documented on recorded records Sire / Sir, south America, he was still a explorer, and so close it wasn't even funny, to getting to north america by mistake nontheless, but he had did a lot of crazy things they never mentioned other than on scrolls and tablets translated to modern English language, finding it amazing how that truly happened also yes the Vikings did actually find many different lands, not just in north America and Canada, but in even parts of the middle east that they traded many metals, yes swords like the Uef+ber Sword that was actually a marks making technology only China & India actually had at that exact times for the Damascus metals, hence found those metals predating long before some 1100 ! More like Scandinavia 714 or 716 A.D give or take, during times of Hákon the Blue-Spears as his nickname was, High king of Scandinavia until Ragnar Lothbrok took over all that in the years to come .

So I would say that the Natives in general discovered North America. The reason being it doesn’t matter who you single out of the explorers and potential options. Such as Jacques Cartier-his story involves Natives, John Cabot-natives again, Christopher Columbus-Natives again, colonizers-killed Natives for land, Vikings-ran into Natives etc. It seems like no matter what you choose, the Natives were already there and had discovered the land.
GIMLI ! wow
It was vine land the name America came later
very good, they all drank brador
No....we all know that the Vikings were in North & South America long before any Italian or Portuguese sailors ever set foot here.
And there were other groups of sailors trading with people of the Americas long before the Vikings. The Egyptians and Phoenicians both has regular trading routes with the peoples of the Americas.
Where is your proof?
When summer came they went thieving...
Columbus landed in Hispaniola. Not Cuba. Sheesh. Hispaniola is the island of Haiti and the Dominican Republic.

1:14 this is not a viking bcs they did not wear horned helmets
They are probably meant as Vikings. But during the 1800's a romanticized version of Vikings evolved. These Vikings had winged, or horned helmets. A version of the Vikings created by ignorant painters.
The did wear horned ceremonial helmets for cultural purposes
@@LucidWanderer There are no archeological evidence of that. There is only one intact Viking helmet ever found, in Denmark. In Sweden we have the Vendel helmet (google). From the era that predates Vikings, that's how Viking helmets are thought to have looked like. None of them have horns.

I'd say Cristiforo Colombo had the best claim to 'discovering' north america. None of the other 'discoveries' amounted to anything whereas his set off a massive shift to populate and explore the new world.
Indeed, you are 1000% correct. However, we must remember that Columbo made his voyage during the Renaissance period, when culture, education, invention and bureaucratic organization were thriving. On the other hand, these were Scandinavian tribes people. It really is amazing that this was accomplished at the end of the Dark Ages. In truth, it was probably one of the stepping stones that helped begin the period of enlightenment.
It is NewFOUNDland

I’m trying to understand why, in a video about Vikings, you mispronounce so many of their personal names and place names. Even more, I’m trying to understand why you glaringly mispronounce several coming English words, such as the word “malady.” Please explain whether you disregard the pronunciation guides in any dictionary on purpose, through accident, or through ignorance of how to read them.
Likely the Viking settlements would be in the vicinity of glacial run-off.
The Vikings (Norse) were not all from areas close to glaciers. Most were not. How do you explain the Norse in Sweden, for example?

Prononcation mistakes throughout. For example, generally the "w" in sword is silent.
The names of most of the Canadian locations are downright painful. Wrong stresses and vowel sounds in most of them. Also, ch in French (like Hochelaga, a French transcription of a native word) is the shushing equivalent of a sh in English. Hosh-a-la-ga, primary stress on the third syllable and secondary stress on the first when sounded in English. Much more slurred together with different vowel sounds in French (different stresses too).
And "maLAdy" instead of "MAlady".
Actualy this is where all the Mythologeys orgin from when the world was young.and some of the cradles of civ.
Please do proper research.
Alþingið is not the oldest parliament in the world.
You completely skip a major part of the Norse going west. They didn’t go directly to Iceland. They came to the Faroe Islands many years before, where the actual oldest parliament, Lögtingið, is located.
The Faroese viking, Naddoddur, found Iceland by accident.

Dealing with all the natural phenomenon and bad luck,wild animals, foraging for food, low women survival rate,etc made creating a new colony really difficult.
- it's also possible that vikings(sea raiders) assimilated into the native tribes for survival and moved to river systems and became farmers again.

Amazing video and content nonetheless, thank you.
Amazing in accuracies indeed!
the Native Americans who were Asians originally discovered The Americas long long before any Europeans.
