New archaeological evidence points to a previously unknown Viking exploration of Notre Dame Bay in Newfoundland, Canada.
Archaeologists even suggest that the voyage, which lead from L'Anse aux Meadows and deep into the bay, may have lead to the first contact between Vikings and Native Americans.
The evidence for this comes largely from two jasper artifacts used by the Norse to start fires. The artifacts themselves were found at L'Anse aux Meadows close to a known Viking site, but chemical analysis suggests they originated in the Notre Dame Bay some 140 miles away.

The castle was built by the Crichton family in the 13th century in Sanquhar, Dumfries and Galloway. It sits on the trail of the Southern Upland Way. It was visited by many notable figures including Robert the Bruce, William Wallace, Edward I, Mary, Queen of Scots, and James VI.
The castle ruins are reportedly haunted by the ghost of Marion Dalpeddar, who was rumored to be murdered by one of the Crichtons in 1590.
