and all for that the author of the book hasn't checked the seacharts from
15th century.... bad.... It seems as if the land in west on the Vinland map
was noted in a seachart from 1422 AD, in other words before the 1477 AD
seachart I have had knowledge of. One thing the author has missed is looking
carefully in Bergersen Robert Vinland Bibliography, Universitetsbilbioteket
i Tromsos skriftserie Ravnetryck nr 10 from 1997. ISBN 82-91378-11-8.......
if the author had read there and followed up(=read) the refered works from
15th and 16th century regarding maps and seachart, the author would have had
a hard time missing correct facts.

Thus it's not essential at all when the Vinland map was made. Either it was
done as I believe in 15th century or later there is one from 15th century
showing same parts....
