The Vikings referred to the indigenous peoples of North America as "straelings," a term believed to mean "strangers" or "foreigners." This name was used during their explorations and settlements, particularly in areas like Vinland, which is thought to be part of modern-day Newfoundland. The term reflects the Vikings' encounters with the local populations, whom they found distinct from themselves.
