    Source on that one? That’d be almost a millennium before Norsemen arrived in Greenland, which was a pretty huge journey at that time. Getting to the Caribbean—without coming across via Greenland & Canada, for which there would surely be evidence, would be a much larger step than anything else going on at the time.

      That’s how Japanese ships ended up in America as well.
