L'Anse aux Meadows was a viking settlement in the island of Newfoundland, Canada.
History
Around 970s, Leif Ericson was the first European to reach the shores of North America, in what is known as Newfoundland today. Although it is not clear whether he was part of the initial voyage, he was certainly a member of the Viking expedition that reached L'Anse aux Meadows, a settlement on the island. According to Viking myths and sagas, Ericson established a colony at Vinland.[1]
