Viking Legacy and Lore
Leif Erikson's Discovery was More than Finding New Lands
500 years before Columbus, a Viking named Leif changed the map of the world.
In this gripping episode of Viking Legacy and Lore, we explore the real story of Leif Erikson, the Norse explorer who may be the first European to set foot in America.
Known as Leif the Lucky, his voyage to Vinland (believed to be Newfoundland, Canada) is one of the most incredible and overlooked feats of exploration in world history.
And yet—most people don’t even know his name.
🛡️ What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why Leif Erikson, not Columbus, should be credited with discovering America
- How Viking technology made transatlantic sailing possible
- The faith, courage, and cunning that defined Leif’s journey
- How the saga tradition preserved his story—and why the West ignored it
- The legacy of a man who didn’t seek glory, but earned it anyway
⚔️ Why It Matters:
This episode isn’t just about righting historical wrongs.
It’s about honoring the Viking spirit of discovery, courage, and legacy.
Leif Erikson’s story reminds us that being first isn’t always about fame—sometimes it’s about boldness, belief, and the sea’s call.
