Gents- The World News Daily Report is a tabloid with its own disclaimers readily found on the web. Believe this story at your own risk. |

Yup, we should be skeptical, but "Wow" still applies. Could this be the far off and sun-baked land called "Solar Partistra" in some European and Scandinavian medieval records? History and Archeology can be so cool and so disruptive to the schema and paradigms we try to cling on to! So, take this with a great big grain of salt but also don't dismiss it out of hand. link Cheers and novel gaming. Rod Robertson. |

If (big if) that is true that really re-writes the history books… |

jpattern2 A big +1, this "news source" also has a story about how Bin Laden is alive and well and living in the Bahamas, and how archaeologists have also determined that Jesus was "Black" (you know, as opposed to being Middle Eastern), and how the lost colonists of Roanoke have been found through a DNA match (which is news to real archaeologists). This is about as likely to be true as anything you read on the racks while waiting to check out at the market. |

Even more important news than bunch of Scandinavians reaching the coasts of Down Under can be read on the thicker above the text: Viagra for dogs finally approved. Snowy, c'mon boy! Have I a good news for you. |

That's the greenest picture I have ever seen Derby. Even the football oval is not that green. |

There is proof of similar artifacts being discovered on the western coast of the northern part of the north island of New Zealand. In the deep forests of Waipoua near Dargaville some 7 or 8 years back a discovery was made (I beleive the remains of a settlement of sorts and an array of tools and equipment) that kinda went viral in the area at the time but was then hushed up in a very big and very prompt manner, perhaps to keep local indigenous happy. Discoveries like this being unearthed in New Zealand and made public would upset a volatile balance especially in the North of the country. Very interesting. |
