Archeologists are welcoming this news as well. Science is all about change and new data.

seriously? doesn't anyone actually check their source before believing everything they read?

Yeap , The story although tantalizing - is bogus ! I was pretty excited when I first read it (hadn't heard of World News Daily Report )

(On this topic does anyone know if the "Kensington Stone" has been authenticated ?)

Next, people will look to Rachael Maddow, John Stewart and the Colbert report for their news...........Wake up folks!!!!!!

 

[UncleMatt]

LOL, well they sure got me hook line and sinker! I guess I shouldn't post things from work, when I haven't had a chance to vet them thoroughly!

MY BAD! :-D

While that story may not be true...it's not totally out of the realm of possibility! There is a known viking settlement in Newfoundland and this was found in Maine. Welcome to Maine State Museum I sure would like to put my coil over one of those

"Viking Ship Found at the Mouth of the Mississippi."

But the article says it was near Memphis? I'm a dumb Yank but I know Memphis is 400 miles or so North of the mouth of the Mississippi. ;-)

There are Indian legends of red haired giants in the north central region and elsewhere.

A Crow Indian told me that they knew about the Vikings. They came through their territory heading south.
