national park in Newfoundland (Canada), site of an 11th-century Viking colony which is the oldest known European colony in the New World

Site on the northern tip of Newfoundland of the first known European settlements in the New World. Norse settlers may have established as many as three settlements there near the end of the 10th century.

The settlements were soon abandoned, probably as the Norse withdrew from Greenland
