Yes, but we norwegians are not a very literate people, with a few
notable exceptions. If you don't write things down, they haven't
happened.

But your adventures in North America a thousand years ago WERE written down
in several Icelandic sagas. By that time, there were Christian priests
throughout most of the Norse world, and while the Icelandic sagas started as
oral traditions, they were written down by some of these priests during the
eleventh and twelfth centuries.
