Markland
Markland is the name given to an area of undisclosed location, named by
Leif Ericsson when visiting North America. Markland, for "treeland", is known to be north of
Vinland and south of Helluland. It is generally believed to be in
Labrador;
Newfoundland may have either been Vinland or part of Markland (see
Vinland). Ericsson's crew cut down trees and took them to
Greenland, because Greenland has very few trees.
