Cambridge, March 29, 1900 Chapter 1 The European Discovery of America
Leif Erikson discovers America in the year 1000.
In our early childhood, many of us learned to repeat the lines, Columbus sailed the ocean blue in 1492.
We thought he was the first European to visit America, but nearly 500 years before his time, Leif Erikson had discovered the new world.
He was a Northman and the son of Eric the Red.
Erik had already founded a colony in Greenland, and Leif sailed from Norway to make him a visit.
This was the year 1000.
Day after day, Leif and his men were tossed about on the sea until they reached an unknown land where they found many grapevines.
They called it Vinland, or Wineland.
They then sailed northward and reached Greenland in safety.
Precisely where Vindland was is not known, but it certainly was part of North America.
Leif Erikson, the Northman, was therefore the real discoverer of America.
