The only verified and reconstructed Viking settlement is in L’Anse aux Meadows in northern Newfoundland. It is astonishing and worth the visit. DNA tracing indicates that Vikings did interbreed with local Beothuk Indians. They lived in wood and sod lodges. The settlement was established 100’s of years before Columbus. Vikings had an unfortunate habit of not recording their achievements so much is guess work.

BUT...Vikings were arrogant, impertinent and aggressive to Native Americans. Contrary to the nonsense in the video the movie "Pathfinder" is a good movie about them. Shows what nefarious slaughterers they were. They also scornfully called Native Americans "Skraelinger", which means something like "weaklings". Their pitiful settlement attempts failed because they were unable to get along peacefully with the Native Americans and because they fought among themselves. So they failed simply out of stupidity. Calling them barbarians is an insult to the barbarians! They hunted humans and were rapists, murderers and bandits. They were the worst torturers! The historical Viking sagas describe in detail the course of this ritual, an act of unprecedented cruelty. In the "blood eagle"(Blutaar) torture method, victims are kept alive throughout the ordeal while their ribs are fractured on the side of their back. The ribs were then spread apart to expose the victim's lungs. Then the two lungs were set up like wings. Therefore "blood eagle", because the sight reminded the Viking torturers of bleeding eagles. They were the worst murderers! On their raids they mercilessly murdered women and children. Prisoners were also sacrificed to their bloodthirsty god Odin. They were immeasurably greedy for prey and were ready for that to murder mercilessly. The Arab merchant Ahmad Ibn Fadlān who was with the Vikings in 922 writes about a chieftain funeral. It was a slave girl with the dead chief burned with. These killers! They also burned a dog, a horse, a cow and chickens. Before they murdered the slave girl, they raped her, and not just one bandit raped her. The whole horde raped her! The slaughtered the slave girl downright after the mass rape. Like the animals! She lay next to the body of the disgusting Chief. These barbarians, murderers! Ibn Fadlān describes the murder of the slave girl this way: Then the slave girl was pulled into the tent by an old woman named angel of death and the men started to beat on their shields with sticks. Six men entered the tent to have intercourse with the girl, after which they laid her onto her master's bed beside him. Two men grabbed her hands, and two men her wrists. The angel of death looped a rope around her neck and while two men pulled the rope, the old woman stabbed the girl between her ribs with a knife. The poor girl, the only positive she did not have to live with this scum anymore. Ibn Fadlān describes the Vikings as "perfect" physical specimens and the hygiene of the Rūsiyyah as disgusting and shameless, especially regarding to sex (which they perform openly even in groups), and considers them vulgar and unsophisticated. Each is tattooed from "the tips of his toes to his neck" with dark blue or dark green "designs". They are the filthiest of all Allah’s creatures: they do not purify themselves after excreting or urinating or wash themselves when in a state of ritual impurity after coitus and do not even wash their hands after meals. They are called by Ibn Fadlān as the dirtiest creatures of God! They are portrayed absolutely wrong in the movie "The 13th Warrior". After all as unhygenic and actually disgusting, but otherwise completely wrongly presented. The usual Viking cult, disgusting propaganda! The Vikings achieved nothing lasting other than colonizing Iceland. WOW! What a great achievement! Instead of settling in North America, these incompetent idiots settled on Greenland, where they became extinct. According to the Viking myth, they should have been the best mariners of the epoch around the year 1000 AD! Ridiculous. The Irish showed them the way to Iceland. From Iceland to Greenland lasted only a few days across the open sea. From Greenland to Newfoundland (North America), took also only a few days across the open sea. These idiots have discovered a new continent and couldn't use their knowledge for anything. In fact they prefered to settle in Greenland where they ended up starving and fleeing! The movie "Pathfinder" is the exception to the usual Viking myth. That is a good movie about them. Shows what nefarious slaughterers they were. The Vikings were definitely not the best mariners because the best mariners of that time were the Polynesians who explored the Pacific. The Vikings mostly stayed close to the coast and mainly orientated themselves on landmarks. Voyages across the open sea were the exceptions, like expeditions into unknown waters. The Vikings were in fact the opposite of the Polynesians who colonized the islands of the entire Pacific in the same epoch. For the the great Polynesians, voyages across the open sea were a matter of course like expeditions into unknown waters. Incidentally, the boats of the Polynesian were also much better suited for sailing than the boats of the Vikings, which is why the Polynesian were able to sail much longer distances than the Vikings. Which can be explained by the fact that the primitive Viking boats, actually were mainly rowing boats with only auxiliary sails, were just that were badly suited for sailing. The Drua ships of the Polynesian used to colonize the myriad of Pacific islands, on the other hand, were excellent sailing ships with superior crab claw sails that were ideally suited to sailing long distances across the open sea. So the Polynesians were the greatest mariners of this epoch around the year 1000 AD and certainly not the Vikings. The Vikings were by no means excellent fighters, as the myths say about them. They lost about 50% of their battles. That's really not an impressive record. By the way, in contrast to the Vikings, the Slavs colonized half of Europe, because the Slavs did not enslave anyone and relied on cooperation and assimilation of other peoples and not like the Vikings, where there was only violence,enslavement and enmity. Yes In fact, the Slavs did not engage in slavery. According to the 6th-century manual of war "Strategikon" by Byzantine Emperor Maurice the Slavs were a hospitable people and did not keep prisoners indefinitely "but lay down a certain period after which they can decide for themselves if they want to return to their former homelands or to stay amongst the Slavs as free men and friends." Byzantine chroniclers noted that Roman prisoners captured by the Slavs could soon become free members of Slavic society if they wished. So slavs were the only ones who even assimilated Romans and not just captured soldiers but the population of entire conquered territories. That is why today there are very many Slavs and only very few Scandinavian descendants of the Vikings in comparison. That is why half of Europe is populated by Slavs and the descendants of the Vikings live in the same relatively small area as 1000 years ago compared to the large area of the Slavs. So Slavs were so successful in the assimilation of other peoples because they weren't as barbaric as the Vikings.

This is hands down the coolest portrayal of Native Americans I’ve ever seen, and it’s probably the most accurate when you think about it because settlers traded with Native Americans early on. Most portrayals I feel like Native Americans are suspicious right out the gate, hostile with an animalistic skiddishness, grunting to each other like cavemen or yelling as they charge into battle just to get murked by boomsticks. In this, they display the proper home team advantage for lack of a better way to put it. They’re the ones in control here. They know it. But they choose to have mercy for the people showing up. They’re cool and collected. I love the guy breaking the arrow, his display of emotional intelligence. I love all the beautiful ornate outfits the women are wearing. I love that their leader is a woman because there were matriarchal tribes but you never see those. I love that she’s generous, well-spoken and kind. We know that Native Americans had an *actual civilization* before white people showed up but I don’t think I ever fully realized until now how little that’s actually portrayed. I’ve never even seen this show but I was glued to the screen.

At the same time, we are human, we reach for reason and connection. We know that Norsemen made it to my Nation in particular: there is a Norse runestone to that fact. The stone presents us with a challenge: how did those first meetings go? We know it was not a bloody exchange, but at some point the Norsemen to Minnesota did encounter battle somewhere with someone, but it was beyond their initial point of contact. So this mini feature here brings history to our living rooms, makes me think, makes us wonder. Bravo!

did you know the real viking expedition had a cow with them, first encounters with the natives were friendly and there was some trading of food and items between them, soon afterwards the natives attacked the vikings and friendly relations stopped. its possible the vikings traded milk from their cow and since the natives were lactose intolerant they tought they had been poisened after drinking the milk. It's definitely not confirmed, but an interesting theory as to why they suddenly attacked the vikings.

I don’t know much about the relationships between the Vikings and Native Americans but it is very interesting that the Native Americans on the West Coast have much more Japanese type look to them with the folded eyelids and wide cheekbones whereas the Native Americans on the East Coast have almost more European look to them. It would suggest something happened that changed the way Native Americans looked on the different coasts.

@@latsnojokelee6434 There actually is an explanation for at least some of that, it's due to how and when they came to the America's. Most Native American's came over the land bridge formed due to low sea levels because of the Ice Age. They came up through Asia, and such across through Siberia onto the land bridge to Alaska, and down through. Of course, there's also evidence that many, especially those of Hawaii and South America actually came by boat, there are definite Polynesian influences there.

I'm Ojibwe, but my father did tell me as a child that there was a time that the ancestors had a friendship with Vikings! I always loved the idea of that and imagined all sorts of scenarios as a kid. Obviously more than just friendship transpired, given that they left eventually due to conflicts and lack of resources and who knows what else, but my dad left that bit out in favor of teaching me that cultural disparity isn't necessarily a reason for conflict (and that Christopher Columbus was depraved bigot). Seeing that idea acted out here is wonderful. This is lovely to watch.

It wasn't always conflict. The Finns were one of the last major groups to immigrate to North America and interacted with the Ojibwe to such an extent that the two groups intermarried and created the "Findians" if you will. Perhaps both peoples got along as they both share a strong oral history tradition, woodcarving, and respect for nature.

If that 80% didn’t perished, it will be a hell difficult for the colonists to subdue the indigenous population.

This is a beautiful scene in so many ways. First the shots of the nature: huge trees, the light, the strange sounds: we are in a new world. Then the tense moment of meeting, and the strong act of leadership shown by the young man who breaks the arrow. The meeting with the female leader in the tent, and she knows how to use gestures, smiles and words to defuse the situation. Finally the moments where the ice breaks: the native American woman who comforts the Viking baby and the curious girl who makes everyone laugh when she pulls on the Viking's beard. As an aside: I am a Dutch man and I once traveled in Tanzania. It seems most Tanzanians do not have as much body hair as we do. So a young girl in a bus was mighty curious about my arm hair, and she enthousiastically started pulling on it! 😂 It was the start of a great friendship for the many hours we sat together in that bus. This memory makes me love the scene with the girl and the Viking's beard even more.

I found the choice of scenery to be rather disappointing. The landscape of Newfoundland (or what the Vikings referred to as "Vinland") is absolutely nothing like this. Our trees are a fraction of the height shown in Vikings, the wind is far too harsh and rampant for them to reach such a height. It was obvious to me they just opted for a European location rather than the true place where the gathering would have happened. But other than that, the architecture and clothing are authentic to our understanding of Beothuk culture. But I tried to not let these inconsistencies distract me from feeling the curiosity and wonder of coming across a new land and people for the first time and how they would have had to work around the obvious language gap through humour and exchanging simple words.

And every occurrence involving misinterpretation or stark difference involving customs. And above all, I appreciate how these scenes focus on the positive interactions that occurred between different groups of our human ancestors. Their respective lineages dating far back, an untold amount of trials and survival stories... obstacles overcome, such as the long journey across the Atlantic ocean. And after so, so many years, the very distant descendants from the same mother were reunited.

Good to see indigenous people portrayed in a positive manner. So much of their culture is fascinating and not enough of it is taught in school. I live in rural Pennsylvania which is rich in history, from the Liberty Bell and founding fathers, Valley Forge, William Penns home, Gettysburg, Washingtons Crossing, and the many Inns and towns that were touched by history. Here we are blessed with the knowledge of our past, but so little Native American culture is known in spite of the fact that this part of Pennsylvania was once home to several different tribes. This depiction of history shows that in spite of our differences we can find common ground and that there is something unique about our cultures that we can share and learn from.

However in any case Vikings were arrogant, impertinent and aggressive to Native Americans. Contrary to the nonsense in the video the movie "Pathfinder" is a good movie about them. Shows what nefarious slaughterers they were. They also scornfully called Native Americans "Skraelinger", which means something like "weaklings". Their pitiful settlement attempts failed because they were unable to get along peacefully with the Native Americans and because they fought among themselves. So they failed simply out of stupidity. Calling them barbarians is an insult to the barbarians! They hunted humans and were rapists, murderers and bandits. They were the worst torturers! The historical Viking sagas describe in detail the course of this ritual, an act of unprecedented cruelty. In the "blood eagle"(Blutaar) torture method, victims are kept alive throughout the ordeal while their ribs are fractured on the side of their back. The ribs were then spread apart to expose the victim's lungs. Then the two lungs were set up like wings. Therefore "blood eagle", because the sight reminded the Viking torturers of bleeding eagles. They were the worst murderers! On their raids they mercilessly murdered women and children. Prisoners were also sacrificed to their bloodthirsty god Odin. They were immeasurably greedy for prey and were ready for that to murder mercilessly. The Arab merchant Ahmad Ibn Fadlān who was with the Vikings in 922 writes about a chieftain funeral. It was a slave girl with the dead chief burned with. These killers! They also burned a dog, a horse, a cow and chickens. Before they murdered the slave girl, they raped her, and not just one bandit raped her. The whole horde raped her! The slaughtered the slave girl downright after the mass rape. Like the animals! She lay next to the body of the disgusting Chief. These barbarians, murderers! Ibn Fadlān describes the murder of the slave girl this way: Then the slave girl was pulled into the tent by an old woman named angel of death and the men started to beat on their shields with sticks. Six men entered the tent to have intercourse with the girl, after which they laid her onto her master's bed beside him. Two men grabbed her hands, and two men her wrists. The angel of death looped a rope around her neck and while two men pulled the rope, the old woman stabbed the girl between her ribs with a knife. The poor girl, the only positive she did not have to live with this scum anymore. Ibn Fadlān describes the Vikings as "perfect" physical specimens and the hygiene of the Rūsiyyah as disgusting and shameless, especially regarding to sex (which they perform openly even in groups), and considers them vulgar and unsophisticated. Each is tattooed from "the tips of his toes to his neck" with dark blue or dark green "designs". They are the filthiest of all Allah’s creatures: they do not purify themselves after excreting or urinating or wash themselves when in a state of ritual impurity after coitus and do not even wash their hands after meals. They are called by Ibn Fadlān as the dirtiest creatures of God! They are portrayed absolutely wrong in the movie "The 13th Warrior". After all as unhygenic and actually disgusting, but otherwise completely wrongly presented. The usual Viking cult, disgusting propaganda! The Vikings achieved nothing lasting other than colonizing Iceland. WOW! What a great achievement! Instead of settling in North America, these incompetent idiots settled on Greenland, where they became extinct. According to the Viking myth, they should have been the best mariners of the epoch around the year 1000 AD! Ridiculous. The Irish showed them the way to Iceland. From Iceland to Greenland lasted only a few days across the open sea. From Greenland to Newfoundland (North America), took also only a few days across the open sea. These idiots have discovered a new continent and couldn't use their knowledge for anything. In fact they prefered to settle in Greenland where they ended up starving and fleeing! The movie "Pathfinder" is the exception to the usual Viking myth. That is a good movie about them. Shows what nefarious slaughterers they were. The Vikings were definitely not the best mariners because the best mariners of that time were the Polynesians who explored the Pacific. The Vikings mostly stayed close to the coast and mainly orientated themselves on landmarks. Voyages across the open sea were the exceptions, like expeditions into unknown waters. The Vikings were in fact the opposite of the Polynesians who colonized the islands of the entire Pacific in the same epoch. For the the great Polynesians, voyages across the open sea were a matter of course like expeditions into unknown waters. Incidentally, the boats of the Polynesian were also much better suited for sailing than the boats of the Vikings, which is why the Polynesian were able to sail much longer distances than the Vikings. Which can be explained by the fact that the primitive Viking boats, actually were mainly rowing boats with only auxiliary sails, were just that were badly suited for sailing. The Drua ships of the Polynesian used to colonize the myriad of Pacific islands, on the other hand, were excellent sailing ships with superior crab claw sails that were ideally suited to sailing long distances across the open sea. So the Polynesians were the greatest mariners of this epoch around the year 1000 AD and certainly not the Vikings. The Vikings were by no means excellent fighters, as the myths say about them. They lost about 50% of their battles. That's really not an impressive record. By the way, in contrast to the Vikings, the Slavs colonized half of Europe, because the Slavs did not enslave anyone and relied on cooperation and assimilation of other peoples and not like the Vikings, where there was only violence,enslavement and enmity. Yes In fact, the Slavs did not engage in slavery. According to the 6th-century manual of war "Strategikon" by Byzantine Emperor Maurice the Slavs were a hospitable people and did not keep prisoners indefinitely "but lay down a certain period after which they can decide for themselves if they want to return to their former homelands or to stay amongst the Slavs as free men and friends." Byzantine chroniclers noted that Roman prisoners captured by the Slavs could soon become free members of Slavic society if they wished. So Slavs were the only ones who even assimilated Romans and not just captured soldiers but the population of entire conquered territories. That is why today there are very many Slavs and only very few Scandinavian descendants of the Vikings in comparison. That is why half of Europe is populated by Slavs and the descendants of the Vikings live in the same relatively small area as 1000 years ago compared to the large area of the Slavs. So Slavs were so successful in the assimilation of other peoples because they weren't as barbaric as the Vikings.

When it comes to the portrayal of the Beothuk, accuracy is incredibly difficult as these peoples have been extinct for almost 200 years. Besides a few common phrases we know absolutely nothing of their language, but there are theories that it was part of the Eastern Algonquain language group. So considering this, their choice of using the Mi'kmaq language (which is also a native language of present-day Newfoundland) made sense to accommodate this knowledge gap. When it comes to Beothuk clothing and attire the portrayal here is quite accurate. They did in fact paint their faces and bodies with red ochre as well as grease and wore clothing made of animal skin. We don't know what time of year Leif Erikson landed in Newfoundland, so their choice in choosing what is presumably summer isn't a huge issue and would most likely make sense considering the harsh conditions in the winter months which made sailing difficult. The housing looks seemingly identical to Beothuk mamateeks so props to them for that. My biggest issue in terms of accuracy has to be the landscape. The trees are WAY too tall for it to resemble anything remotely similar to Newfoundland landscape. We know from archeological discovery that the Vikings landed in the present-day Northern Peninsula of Newfoundland, meaning the terrain should be high plain plateau flatlands with incredibly eroded shorelines, which this scene is obviously lacking. They probably had their reasons to record season 6 in both Norway and Ireland instead, but I think it would have just been better to actually go to the landscape where these events took place. Other than that though, an almost precise portrayal given our current understanding.

However in any case Vikings were arrogant, impertinent and aggressive to Native Americans. Contrary to the nonsense in the video the movie "Pathfinder" is a good movie about them. Shows what nefarious slaughterers they were. They also scornfully called Native Americans "Skraelinger", which means something like "weaklings". Their pitiful settlement attempts failed because they were unable to get along peacefully with the Native Americans and because they fought among themselves. So they failed simply out of stupidity. Calling them barbarians is an insult to the barbarians! They hunted humans and were rapists, murderers and bandits. They were the worst torturers! The historical Viking sagas describe in detail the course of this ritual, an act of unprecedented cruelty. In the "blood eagle"(Blutaar) torture method, victims are kept alive throughout the ordeal while their ribs are fractured on the side of their back. The ribs were then spread apart to expose the victim's lungs. Then the two lungs were set up like wings. Therefore "blood eagle", because the sight reminded the Viking torturers of bleeding eagles. They were the worst murderers! On their raids they mercilessly murdered women and children. Prisoners were also sacrificed to their bloodthirsty god Odin. They were immeasurably greedy for prey and were ready for that to murder mercilessly. The Arab merchant Ahmad Ibn Fadlān who was with the Vikings in 922 writes about a chieftain funeral. It was a slave girl with the dead chief burned with. These killers! They also burned a dog, a horse, a cow and chickens. Before they murdered the slave girl, they raped her, and not just one bandit raped her. The whole horde raped her! The slaughtered the slave girl downright after the mass rape. Like the animals! She lay next to the body of the disgusting Chief. These barbarians, murderers! Ibn Fadlān describes the murder of the slave girl this way: Then the slave girl was pulled into the tent by an old woman named angel of death and the men started to beat on their shields with sticks. Six men entered the tent to have intercourse with the girl, after which they laid her onto her master's bed beside him. Two men grabbed her hands, and two men her wrists. The angel of death looped a rope around her neck and while two men pulled the rope, the old woman stabbed the girl between her ribs with a knife. The poor girl, the only positive she did not have to live with this scum anymore. Ibn Fadlān describes the Vikings as "perfect" physical specimens and the hygiene of the Rūsiyyah as disgusting and shameless, especially regarding to sex (which they perform openly even in groups), and considers them vulgar and unsophisticated. Each is tattooed from "the tips of his toes to his neck" with dark blue or dark green "designs". They are the filthiest of all Allah’s creatures: they do not purify themselves after excreting or urinating or wash themselves when in a state of ritual impurity after coitus and do not even wash their hands after meals. They are called by Ibn Fadlān as the dirtiest creatures of God! They are portrayed absolutely wrong in the movie "The 13th Warrior". After all as unhygenic and actually disgusting, but otherwise completely wrongly presented. The usual Viking cult, disgusting propaganda! The Vikings achieved nothing lasting other than colonizing Iceland. WOW! What a great achievement! Instead of settling in North America, these incompetent idiots settled on Greenland, where they became extinct. According to the Viking myth, they should have been the best mariners of the epoch around the year 1000 AD! Ridiculous. The Irish showed them the way to Iceland. From Iceland to Greenland lasted only a few days across the open sea. From Greenland to Newfoundland (North America), took also only a few days across the open sea. These idiots have discovered a new continent and couldn't use their knowledge for anything. In fact they prefered to settle in Greenland where they ended up starving and fleeing! The movie "Pathfinder" is the exception to the usual Viking myth. That is a good movie about them. Shows what nefarious slaughterers they were. The Vikings were definitely not the best mariners because the best mariners of that time were the Polynesians who explored the Pacific. The Vikings mostly stayed close to the coast and mainly orientated themselves on landmarks. Voyages across the open sea were the exceptions, like expeditions into unknown waters. The Vikings were in fact the opposite of the Polynesians who colonized the islands of the entire Pacific in the same epoch. For the the great Polynesians, voyages across the open sea were a matter of course like expeditions into unknown waters. Incidentally, the boats of the Polynesian were also much better suited for sailing than the boats of the Vikings, which is why the Polynesian were able to sail much longer distances than the Vikings. Which can be explained by the fact that the primitive Viking boats, actually were mainly rowing boats with only auxiliary sails, were just that were badly suited for sailing. The Drua ships of the Polynesian used to colonize the myriad of Pacific islands, on the other hand, were excellent sailing ships with superior crab claw sails that were ideally suited to sailing long distances across the open sea. So the Polynesians were the greatest mariners of this epoch around the year 1000 AD and certainly not the Vikings. The Vikings were by no means excellent fighters, as the myths say about them. They lost about 50% of their battles. That's really not an impressive record. By the way, in contrast to the Vikings, the Slavs colonized half of Europe, because the Slavs did not enslave anyone and relied on cooperation and assimilation of other peoples and not like the Vikings, where there was only violence,enslavement and enmity. Yes In fact, the Slavs did not engage in slavery. According to the 6th-century manual of war "Strategikon" by Byzantine Emperor Maurice the Slavs were a hospitable people and did not keep prisoners indefinitely "but lay down a certain period after which they can decide for themselves if they want to return to their former homelands or to stay amongst the Slavs as free men and friends." Byzantine chroniclers noted that Roman prisoners captured by the Slavs could soon become free members of Slavic society if they wished. So Slavs were the only ones who even assimilated Romans and not just captured soldiers but the population of entire conquered territories. That is why today there are very many Slavs and only very few Scandinavian descendants of the Vikings in comparison. That is why half of Europe is populated by Slavs and the descendants of the Vikings live in the same relatively small area as 1000 years ago compared to the large area of the Slavs. So Slavs were so successful in the assimilation of other peoples because they weren't as barbaric as the Vikings.

According to the Vinland Sagas, the Norse and natives ended up fighting with each other because of misunderstandings in trades and/or because some natives attempted to steal iron weapons from the Norse compound. The natives, remember, had no iron weapons or tools. So the distrust grew into hostility, and they engaged in combat with each other. Though the Norse prevailed, they came to realize that they were outnumbered on Vinland, so they packed up and left. Read the Vinland Sagas.

That's extremely rare, to be half of anything, for example; it takes a full blooded native to have a child with a non native person to at least claim 1/2 status. Are you documented with a official blood quantum or are you being told that?

Labrador is very rugged. It's on the Northeast Coast of Canada, adjacent to Greenland. Labrador is about the size of Texas and California together. The population is less than the smallest town in Maine. It's a beautiful place to visit, it's very remote and very rugged and very beautiful, and very dangerous because we have polar bears. You can visit these villages today on a tour.

Having a female, especially one with a baby, would show that this was not a war party. Having Sacagawea with her baby helped Louis and Clark because the indigenous people they encountered understood that a war party would never have a female with a baby or child with them. Having the baby with them would have helped any Viking - Native American encounter because children are universal and understood as not a danger regardless of no common language. Also, in some eastern shore / woodland tribes, women would hold positions of power and authority.
