This could be... I was going to say "huge," but that's been kind of overused. For years most Viking scholars have thought there must have been more to Vinland than the site Helge Ingstad found at L'Anse Aux Meadows. Ingstad himself always insisted that this was Vinland and all of Vinland there ever was; no point looking for more. But the site itself seems to have been a simple boat repair station, not the center of a colony. So I'm keen to see what they learn here.
