L is for L' Anse aux Meadows

L'Anse aux Meadows (pronounced locally as LANCE-ah-MED-owes)

In the past four to five thousand years, many people have lived at L’Anse aux Meadows; some stayed longer than others. Among these people was a small group of Norse sailors. The remains of their camp, discovered in 1960 by Helge and Anne Stine Ingstad, is the oldest known European settlement of the New World.
