What did Leif Eriksson name Baffin Island Labrador and Newfoundland?

Leif Eriksson referred to Baffin Island, Labrador, and Newfoundland as "Vinland," which means "Land of Wine" in Old Norse. He named it this due to the presence of wild grapes he discovered there, which he believed could be used for winemaking. Eriksson's exploration around the year 1000 marked one of the earliest known European contacts with North America, long before Columbus's voyages. The name "Vinland" reflects both the natural resources he encountered and the Viking spirit of exploration.

What type of education did Leif Ericson have?

As was tradition with the Vikings, Leif did not grow up with his family. Instead, when he was eight he moved in with a man named Thyrker. Thyrker was from Germany where Eric the Red had captured him, had taken him to Iceland, but had not enslaved him. Thyrker taught Leif everything he needed to know, including reading and writing runes, the Celtic and Russian tongue, and the ways of trade. Leif was also taught the old sagas, plant studies, and the use of weapons.
