A fascinating discussion. I really enjoyed it. However, when you were lamenting the lack of archaeology in North America compared to Scandinavia, I became aware that you were referring solely to the evidence of European presence, without a mention of the Native Americans that had been living there for thousands of years and for which there is a lot of archaeology, including for the Early Medieval Period (Viking Age) predating the arrival of Leif Ericsson.
Ah, thanks for clarifying... obviously I need to re listen with the sound UP. 😏
