Extractions: As for limitations, Mr. Enterline offers this: The story so construed is not held out as proven truth. Instead it is a plausible theory to be tested against independent evidence (p. xix), holding that the day to day purpose of science is not the establishment of universal final explanations (p. xix) but the articulation of theories that lead to further research and better theories. His methodology takes the book out of the realm of history: This is not a history book . It is a pre-history book that subjects maps and documents, as artifacts, to the inductive methods of archaeology. (p. xix). Confronted by the inevitable question, did Columbus see these documents, Enterline concludes that whether he did or not, the generation preceding him certainly did and as a rationally motivated proto-scientist (p. xix), his views of land to the west were thereby influenced by them. Creating that chronology is what much of the remainder of the book is about. In it Enterline states that the divulgence-hiding paradigms alluded to above can clarify the heretofore-unexplained features of Arctic and Far Eastern coastal features that appeared on maps after the Norse encountered the Thule Eskimos in western Greenland. There are eighty-six items in this chronological survey, dating from Ptolemys Geographia in the second century to Hans Poulson Resens map of Vinland, 1605. These include maps, manuscripts, books, voyages and other events, all testifying to the breadth and inclusiveness of Enterlines research. Some will appear more convincing and pertinent than others but together they are marshaled to account for the eventual appearance of North America as a geographical entity separate from Asia.

"The Norsemen were not just warriors, they were farmers, artists, shipbuilders, and innovators," said Ingmar Jansson, a professor of archaeology at Stockholm University in Sweden. "More than anything, they were excellent traders who connected peoples from Baghdad to Scandinavia to the mainland of North America."

Extractions: THE DISPOSAL OP THE DEAD IN HEATHEN TIMES If we desire to know what ideas men held in heathen times about the life beyond the grave, it is natural to turn first to the evidence of archaeology. The grave is an uncontrovertible witness; changes of custom, trivial or sweeping, the importance of funeral ritual in the disposal of the dead, the choice of goods to lay beside or destroy with the bodyall these it preserves for us, as definite facts that cannot be questioned. Any collection of literary evidence about the future life must benefit by a preliminary survey of these facts, to act as a touchstone by which the vague or contradictory statements of literary records may be tested. When cremation first appeared (Period III a) the burnt remains were still placed in a man-length stone cist; but during the next period (III b), as cremation became the universal rite, the grave altered accordingly, and the stone chamber which had held the body now shrank to a smaller, box-like stone cist to contain the urn. Mounds, when erected, were smaller; sometimes the urns were placed in barrows of an earlier period, and sometimes in the late Bronze Age (Montelius IV onwards) buried in flat graves. But although at the end of the Bronze Age the change from burial to burning seemed to be complete, certain graves which date from the transition period between the Bronze and Iron Ages prove a puzzling exception to the general rule, and show that in certain parts burial of the dead had either never been entirely abandoned or that it was now introduced again. In Gotland certain graves of early Iron Age date have been found to hold unburned bodies;

Extractions: Your browser does not support javascript At the Museums: Three Cheers for the Vikings Volume 53 Number 4, July/August 2000 by Judith Lindbergh When most people think of the Vikings, savage, horned-helmeted warriors and blond-braided maidens generally come to mind. Seemingly invincible in the annals of their Christianized victims, the Vikings explored, conquered, and exploited lands as far as their ships could carry them. They penetrated Russia, following waterways to the Black, Caspian, and eastern Mediterranean seas. They tormented the British Isles, terrorized Paris, and defaced a marble lion at the Greek port of Piraeus. But it was in the west, at the hands of Native North Americans and finally, more subtly, at the mercy of unpredictable changes in a fragile Arctic environment, that the Norse met a most poignant and unexpected fate.

They are known by many names including Yup'ik, Inuit and Inupiaq. The Eskimo and their relatives, the Chukchi of Siberia, were coastal hunters of sea mammals. In earlier times, they hunted reindeer in Siberia or caribou in Alaska and Canada. Dogs played a role in the historic cultures of both groups. Who are the Eskimo ?

Extractions: Wave over wave of Vikings cut through the North Sea and the Atlantic. In the east they portaged across Poland, penetrating Russia as far as the Caspian and Black Seas to the Mediterranean. Greed for glory and plunder, lust for freedom and land lured them to England, Sicily, Greenland, Ireland, and as far as Newfoundland in the New World. They colonized England, Greenland, Russia, and Iceland. Between the eighth and eleventh centuries, bands of scandinavians whom we have come to call Vikings played a significant part in reshaping the medieval world from Russia and Byzantium in the east to the Atlantic Islands and Newfoundland in the west as well as on the European continent.

Extractions: The Vikings were the master mariners and ship-builders of the middle ages: their success depended on these skills. Spectacular archaeological finds of whole or partial ships, from burial mounds or dredged from harbours, continue to give new and exciting evidence of their practical craftsmanship and urge to seek new shores. The nautical vocabulary of the Viking Age, however, has been surprisingly neglected - the last Far better contemporary sources from the later Viking Age are available to document the activities of men and their uses of ships from c.950-1100, and Judith Jesch undertakes in this book the first systematic and comparative study of such evidence. The core is a critical survey of the vocabulary of ships and their crews, of fleets and sailing and battles at sea, based on runic inscriptions and skaldic evidence from c.950-1100. This nautical vocabulary is studied within the larger context of 'viking' activity in this period: what that activity
