I did a couple of archeological field schools in college. One was at L'Anse aux Meadows in Newfoundland. I sincerely hope that the winters were mild there (they were not), because those huts were pretty miserable. While most of the six weeks were just scraping away as the dirt, I did find a couple of flint arrowheads at about the right depth for the time period. So at the very least there were locals near the Vikings campsite roughly around the same time as the Viking Sagas.
One thing about that massive disease outbreak after Spain started sending ships to the west, why didn't something similar happen when the Vikings came over?
