This audiobook explores the centuries-long habitation of Greenland and its surrounding region by two Nordic colonies, Vestri-bygd and Eystri-bygd, highlighting their harmonious relationships with the Inuit through evidence from oral traditions and sculptural art. It examines historical cartography, explorers' records, and European influence, suggesting that Portuguese involvement may have played a role in the colonies' disappearance. The narrative challenges common misconceptions and sheds light on the complex interactions and eventual decline of these Norse communities in the Far North.
