Well that article seems to be a misch-masch of information, which
from
beginning origin in one of the Norwegian Professor of
Archaeology's
works...... but of course no ref to that one....


Which Norwegian professor of archaeology? There have been several.

Look closer at two, should have been Professors, Hagen as well as
Mykland.
Articles as well as edited books.

Knut Mykland was a professor of Norwegian history. His special period
was the Napoleonic era and the 19th century. What did he ever write
about archaeology?

So you think they sailed to the Faeroes before 500 AD? How come they
haven't left any traces of settlement before 500?

Maybe passed by. But there are, as I hinted many times, indications
for
settlements in areas in Iceland as well as in parts of North America
which
might be related to this. In Iceland as you can read the ref for in my
D-essay/thesis there are C14 dating of settlements which neither
correspond
to where the first Landnama taker settled nor where the Irish monks
settled.
But which if you look at the DNA-profile for cows and sheeps seems to
have
more Irish than Norwegian lifestock's ancestors among them. Now there
are
notes which directly places some of the Norwegian on islands north of
Ireland and Scotland and also in Yorkshire (!) which correspond
especially
to the emigration from Vest-Agdir to the English isles. Easy to
confirm from
artifacts found in some of the islands and also noted by the Yorkshire
Archaeologic society in one of their books.


Iceland is not the Faroes. What is true of one island in the North
Atlantic may not be true of all of them.

Sorry but have you read Adomnan? I think you will find part of it very
interesting. Especially the details where monks prepared to go to islands
northwest of Scotland preaching.

And what are the "English Isles" that you keep writing about?

Southern island are Orkney, Shetland, Faero Islands and the islands close to
Scotland. The English Isles are all the rest Ireland, Iona, Britain, the
Channel Islands.


Which type of artifacts could point to such? Look closer at the type
of
female 'things' found in what we with Norwegian ancestors call the
southern
islands and on same types found in special areas down to the time of
St
Colombo. Take also a closer reading in Adomnan's work and compare all
that
information with Hagen's excellent work from the excavations in
Systelid.

Compare the type of household items with artifacts found in NA which
been
assumed to be from natives. Well one of the groups never been accepted
to be
Indians but is declared to be natives...... compare the drawings of
that
group's cloths when worn during the so called first contact with the
local
dressings of the areas from Trondheim to Stäket and into today's
Sweden......
You will be surprised.

Compare the evidence from the Faroe Islands and be prepared for a
surprise yourself ;-)

THAT I done and discussed with archeologists first time 10 years ago. So I
have nothing to be surprised for on the contrary I KNOW that full comparing
made by others the way I described will open new views.
