[quote=Quan;5771312]   It wasn't even found to be quite honest. You're thinking Eurocentrically, It was more like It found them. It was something Columbus stumbled upon by mistake.   The Vikings were here building settlements hundreds of years before Columbus.:D You can go up to Canada and see the ruins of these Viking settlements if ya like. It's very interesting. Unlike Columbus, Leif Erikson and the Vikings didn't get lost and think they were in India.
