Vikings were in North America 500 years before Christopher Colombus


And I'm guessing others were there before the Vikings.

History isn't anything like people are taught.

on a slightly related note, most american indians descend from a siberian people who no longer exist in siberia - they have been replaced, or migrated back into asia, etc.

Interesting.

Here’s an interesting thing I’ve learned, the Irish are not Celtic. The celts, and all their artwork, are not the history of the current Irish people.

So it’s like an adopted history. Same goes for Egyptians today, they’re not necessarily the descendants of the Egyptians who built the pyramids.

The Irish are basically a nomad tribe who settled in Ireland a few thousand years ago.

The American Indians were/are Eurasians.

Siberia is in Eurasia. Well, actually, Asia. No euro about it.
