Re: The Vinland Map's Ink

Mr Towe,
if you go back to a former discussion regarding the Vinland Map you will
find that the anatase is described to be in the mineral sand used to dry ink
by the monestry where the 1430's map was drown.

Nothing else of what you write is relevant at all because you haven't
accepted that this is natural, but it is.

You are working from a biased position. You have started out from the
position that the Vinland Map is a fake. I on the other hand hasn't decided
when the Vinland Map was made only known from what I read long before I ever
heard of the Vinland Map, didn't discuss that map at all before I studied
History in 1990's, that there was a map drown in 1430's. Reason behind that
lies in the negotiations between England and Sweden-Denmark-Norway when King
Erik was to marry Philippa daughter of the English King and the English
King's son was to marry King Erik's sister. In that tracta England were
promissed to have the rights to fish in the Norwegian waters. But they also
had to pay tax for it. Which they didn't. That's the reason behind a fishing
war starting in 1418 and that also was the reason why Vinland as well as the
written lines above was on the 1430's map which was discussed in Basel due
to the fact that there also was an old document given by an earlier Pope
during King Magnus Eriksson's days that gave the King of Norway 50% of the
tithes and the Papal collector the other half. The history of the
Scandinavian countries glorious past was told in Basel by the Swedish Bishop
Nils Hermansson.

I take it that you don't know that the Tartar connection goes back to the
Roman Emperor Julian's days? That is all written in sources from Emperor
Julian's and his successors days. The trade that the Tartars and Goths from
Sweden started eastward to China continued during Viking Age. Same Swedish
Rus who were noted to have visited a monestry in mid Europe had some year
earlier visited Asia Minor where they were documented.

Fur trades were a priviliges trade. That's why not all of Vinland was on
that map. The 1430's map was copied from a map which up to 1939 were to be
seen in Villa Medici. The thing isn't if there exists a context and known
history for a map looking exactly like the Vinland Map. It does. The
question is if the Vinland Map is the same map or a map from 1500's. But
that you never even bothered trying to find the background for a need of,
have you?
