Note 104 — IX. AFTERMATH AND CONCLUSION.

In an article on the fauna of Greenland by Herluf Winge (Meddelelser om Grönland, vol. xxi, p. 322), the author cites a list of furs said by Archbishop Erik Walkendorff of Trondhjem (circa 1516) to be obtained from Greenland. Many of the animals therein referred to are not properly attributable to Greenland, and Winge suggests that these skins may have found their way via Greenland to Trondhjem from America.
