Leif Erikson is credited with being the first known European to reach North America, specifically landing in an area he called Vinland, believed to be located in present-day Newfoundland, Canada, around the year 1000 AD. His voyages predate Christopher Columbus's by nearly 500 years, marking a significant moment in the exploration of the New World. Erikson's journeys are documented in Norse sagas, which highlight his role in early transatlantic exploration.
