Note 67-4 — FROM ADAM OF BREMEN’S67-1 DESCRIPTIO INSULARUM AQUILONIS

The reference to the “unsown grain,” and vines in the preceding sentence, are sufficiently characteristic to have enabled any one familiar with the “Saga of Eric the Red” to identify the new land as Vinland, even though it had not been named. It is interesting to note that the reference to “unsown grain” does not appear in the Flat Island Book saga.
