Description
An account of the resource
The Vinland Map is a mappa mundi that depicts Vinland, the Viking name for America. It first came to light in 1957 when it was offered for sale by an anonymous private library. It was thought to date from the mid-fifteenth century, and to be based on a thirteenth century original.
If authentic, it would show that Europeans were aware of America before Columbus sailed there. However, opinion is divided on its authenticity, with the consensus currently erring towards agreement that it is not

An account of the resource
<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/science/2008/dec/27/archaeology-vikings-sword" target="_blank">An account in The Guardian</a> (27 December 2008) discusses how a modern collector had taken a sword thought to be made by the famous smith Ulfberht to the Wallace Collection, where it was found to be a fake. The sword was not of the same high quality as the genuine swords from Ulfberht's forge. This led to further analysis of other swords, and the discovery that many were not of the high quality associated with the Ulfberht swords. Clearly there was a lot of forgery going on.

Description
An account of the resource
The Kensington runestone is one of several runestones found in the American Midwest. Olof Ohman claimed to have discovered it in 1898 near Kensington, Minnesota. The stone describes an expedition by Swedes and Norwegians to the area in the fourteenth century.
Scholarly opinion holds that it is a fake, and perhaps an attempt by recent Scandinavian immigrants to claim acceptance in the area by virtue of their ancestry. However, there are still a small number of people who seek to prove its authenticity.
