(La description de cette image n'existe qu'en anglais)
Naming an island that’s 90 percent ice-covered “Greenland” may seem ironic, but the Norse settlers who arrived in AD 985 found a few pockets of vegetation amid the barren rock and snow. Most of these settlements were near the southern tip of Greenland, sheltered deep within narrow fjords. The settlement of Brattahlid was one of Greenland’s wealthiest, founded by Erik the Red himself. Today the town of Qassiarsuk occupies the site of Brattahlid. In this image, Qassiarsuk’s bright green pastures stand out against the tan of bare rocks surrounding the blue water of Eiriksfjord. White icebergs float in the fjord, and snow remains near the surrounding hilltops, even in August. The Norse inhabited Greenland for almost 500 years (longer than English-speaking colonists have survived in North America), subsisting primarily on sheep and goat milk, caribou, and seal. Curiously, the Greenland Norse do not seem to have eaten fish. The Norse devoted agricultural production to hay to feed livestock during the long winters. The total population of the scattered settlements was about 5,000 people. A combination of factors, both natural and human-caused, extinguished the colony sometime in the fifteenth century. The largest natural cause was the cooling of Greenland in the 1400s. Cold weather would probably have reduced hay production and increased the amount of hay required for winter feed. Increased numbers of icebergs in the fjords and sea ice along the coast likely inhibited travel between settlements and mainland Europe (the last boat known to have returned to Europe from Greenland arrived in Norway in 1410). Over time, the Norse Greenlanders had degraded their environment as well. Shortly after settlement, the settlers cut Greenland’s diminutive forests, limiting ship building, home construction, and iron production. Overgrazing and the use of turf for construction reduced pasture areas. Removal of turf exposed fragile topsoil to rapid erosion, preventing the re-growth of grass. Finally, the Inuit, a Native American culture that originated in the area of the Bering Strait, migrated across the Canadian Arctic and into Greenland in about 1200. The Norse were almost universally hostile to skraeling (the Norse word for aboriginal peoples), and historical records and archeological evidence indicate that some Norse settlements were attacked by the Inuit (and perhaps wiped out) in the late 1300s. These combined forces eventually eradicated the Norse in Greenland, although the final cause remains a mystery.
