Well, there were many theories of how America was settled. Many say they started in Africa and crossed the Bering Strait land bridge (that is now covered by the ocean) that connected Asia and America and settled in the Americas. Another theory is that they started in South America and moved up north. There are also many other theories that people believe in. I hope I helped you! :-)

The Vikings settled much of Canada, and as far south as Minnesota. As more excavation on these sites is done, the larger the presence of Norsemen appears to have been.

Colonization is generally considered to have taken place whenever families migrated to a place with the intention of settling it. Archaeologists have recently found buildings that make it clear that Norse women and children also settled on the land;

One of the largest of the Viking settlements is L'anse aux Meadows, in Newfoundland. It was declared a National Historic Site in 1978, but has been extensively excavated since.
