  • In July 2017 My Wife and I Visited Qassiarsuk, on the Southern Tip of Greenland
    In July 2017 my wife and I visited Qassiarsuk, on the southern tip of Greenland. This was part of a trip from the UK up the west coast of Greenland, which included visits to the Faroe Islands and Iceland en route. We had visited some settlements on Greenland’s east and south coasts as part of a trip in 2015, but wanted to get a little further north this time. Narsarsuaq is an Inuit settlement with little more than an airport and a small museum/shop, located by the Tunulliarfik Fjord on the southern tip of Greenand. Across the Narsarsuaq River from Narsarsuaq itself, on the other side of the Tunulliarfik Fjord, is Qassiarsuk - an even smaller settlement. This was of more interest to us as it is believed to be here that Erik the Red and his wife Thjodhild had a small farm, named Brattahlid. Ruins of several buildings are still visible, and a couple have been reconstructed and furnished as they would have been in Norse times. The settlement is overlooked by a 3m tall bronze statue of Leif Eriksson (Erik the Red’s son), designed by August Werner. It is cast from the same mould of the statue of him at L’Anse aux Meadows in Newfoundland and Labrador, now believed to have been one of the first landing points of Leif Eriksson in North America in 1000. The original mould was made in 1962 for the Seattle World Fair. Leif Eriksson’s statue overlooking Qassiarsuk… … and at L’Anse aux Meadows. The Norse settlement of Brattahlíð was established in around the year 982, and there was a Viking presence here from then until the mid-fifteenth century.

  • Extract from the Foreword: WELCOME to the TRAIL This Book Is
    Extract from the foreword: WELCOME TO THE TRAIL This book is intended as a helping hand to visitors to Southern Greenland's Norse areas - either when planning their visit or when actually standing on the ruin sites. What was it really like back then when Norse formers and hunters lived here? How and where did they build their houses, how were they fitted out - for everyday life and for special occasions? What do the sagas tell us and what can archaeologists reveal? Often the remains from the past appear incomprehensible, the ruins inconceivable and incoherent and the historic reality hazy or obscured. It is therefore with great pleasure that the three local museums in Southern Greenland, in Nanortalik, Qaqortoq and Narsaq, are able to present this book. Here the experienced and knowledgeable archaeologist Jette Arneborg tells of the large classic Norse sites in our area: Brattahlid, where Erik the Red settled with his family at the end of the 980s; Gardar, where the Norsemen's bishop lived; Hvalsey Fjord's Farm and Church, where the latter is one of the best preserved Norse ruins in Greenland; and finally Herjolfsnes, with its very different location compared to the other sites. An account is given of the links between the sites and the saga texts and the history of the archaeological excavations. The individual ruins are dealt with one by one - and then the whole is placed in the context of the broader Norse history, as can only be done by someone who has immersed themselves in the subject, both in theory and practice, for many years.
