What Happened to The Native Americans After Battling the Vikings?

The Vikings left. The people who battled them stayed. Every version of this story focuses on the Norse — why they came, why they fought, why they left. Nobody asks what happened to the three peoples already living on that coastline when the longships arrived. The Beothuk ancestors. The Dorset. The Thule. Three completely different fates, backed by DNA evidence, ancient genetics, and archaeology that has only recently been able to tell this side of the story. We cover: — How the Beothuk ancestors drove the Norse out of North America using geochemical evidence from L'Anse aux Meadows (Kevin Smith, Brown University, 2013) — What the Vinland Sagas reveal when you read them from the Indigenous side — Why the Dorset people vanished — and why the Norse had nothing to do with it (Raghavan & Willerslev, Science, 2014) — How the Thule outlasted the Norse in Greenland by centuries — Why Norse contact didn't trigger epidemics the way Columbus did 500 years later — The Native American woman whose DNA is still alive in 80 Icelanders today (Helgason, deCODE Genetics, American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2010) Tree-ring dating confirmed the Norse were at L'Anse aux Meadows in exactly 1021 AD. The Inuit are still in Greenland. The Norse left no descendants there. This is the part of the story that never gets told. 🔔 Subscribe for more evidence-based deep dives into pre-Columbian Americas history.
