The Norsemen, we still exist. Back then and now, where they live in harmony. Notice, no horns.

I seem to recall reading or hearing somewhere that those horns are a figment of Hollywood's imagination, or something like that.... ?

Ivar is a figment of our imagination. We created him to give this forum depth and bite. We can give him horns if we want to...

Ivar, your serene image of the fjord brought back memories of a delightful cruise along Lyesfjord a few years back. Stunningly beautiful.

Yes you are so right Ralph, and a figment of a one or two's imagination who believe what Hollywood dictates...

And for the ones who are not influenced by Hollywood but real genuine history, may I ad,
"Viking Sites in North America
Archaeological evidence confirms that Vikings reached North America long before Columbus, with sites like L’Anse aux Meadows in Newfoundland showcasing early Norse settlements. These discoveries have reshaped our understanding of European history in the Americas, revealing the bravery and adventurous spirit of the Norse explorers who journeyed across the Atlantic. Viking sites in North America, such as those in Newfoundland, North Dakota, and Connecticut, offer insights into the lives and culture of these early settlers."
And I followed suit in 1967.

I am sorry, Ralph. This is actually a river that starts up in the north of Telemark county, here photographed half way down to where I live and runs out into the fjord. It has a 200km long run.
