| In 1957, an amazing discovery was made - it was a Viking Penny dating
back to 11th Century Norway. The find itself was rare, but not unheard
of. The thing that made it so remarkable? It was found on the Eastern
shore of Maine in the United States. Is this evidence that the Vikings
beat Christopher Columbus to America by 400 years? In this episode, we
discuss Norse exploration, L'Anse aux Meadows, Leif Erikkson, The
Goddard Site and the Maine Viking Penny. Then we play the quiz game with
award-winning Speaker and Author, Marissa F. Cohen! |
