Radio Sweden report


It seems time to write about some of Europe's history. Genetic research in Iceland shows that North American Indians probably stayed there about 1,000 years ago. Research points out at least 350 islands as descendants of a North American woman who lived in Iceland 500 years before Christoffer Columbus saw her first Indian.

When the researchers, through the genres of Icelanders, seek back in history, they find, among other things, women in the southern parts of the country whose descent can be traced back for a thousand years.

But their origin is not European or Greenland closest to hand. Without the traces starting among North America's Indians.

When Christoffer Columbus, without understanding himself, discovered America in 1492, North Africans had already been there about five hundred years earlier. The islander Leif Erikson resident in Greenland had landed in several places and also founded a small colony called Vinland.
