Around the year 1000, a Viking chieftain named Leif Eriksson, son of the man who discovered Greenland, Erik the Red, reached the shores of North America, 500 years before Columbus. "Skraling" was the word used by the Vikings for the Native American and Paleo-Eskimo peoples of what is now Canada, especially the natives of Terranova (Vinland in Old Norse), where Norse settlements have been found. It is also believed that the Vikings settled in the Baffin Island (Helluland) and Labrador (Markland). The Vikings probably brought slaves from the New World to Iceland, as the DNA of some Icelanders seem to indicate that both peoples got mixed. They finally abandoned North America because it wasn’t worth the long journey, as the natives had no silver, iron or anything that the Norse could be interested in. They were received with hostility and the natives were too many for such a small colony of Vikings.
