Leif Ericsson (lived c. 970)
Norse explorer, son of Eric the Red, who sailed west from Greenland to find a country first sighted by Norsemen 986. He visited Baffin Island then sailed along the Labrador coast to Newfoundland, which was named ‘Vinland’ (Wine Land), because he discovered grape vines growing there.
The story was confirmed in 1961 when a Norwegian expedition, led by Helge Ingstad, discovered the remains of a Viking settlement (dated c. 1000) near the fishing village of L'Anse‐aux‐Meadows at the northern tip of Newfoundland.
