Best Answer

The Most famous of vikings was Lief Ericson who lived in the 10th c. He was the first European to reach N. America, we all may know and hear that Columbus discovered America which is true but truly it was Lief Ericson. Columbus was just the first to ever settle down here, Ericson did not, that's why he isn't as popular in American History as Columbus.
