Best Answer

The Norse arrived from Greenland in about 1000 A.D. and established settlements there. Evidence of these settlements still remain. There has been evidence that other European travelers chanced upon the island during the Middle Ages. John Cabot explored the area and claimed it for the monarchs of England in 1497, then Western European fishermen began to visit the Grand Banks fishing grounds during the summer months on a regular basis shortly thereafter leaving settlements over the winter months and returning each spring.
