The Vinland Map is claimed to be a 15th-century mappa mundi with unique information about Norse Exploration of North America. It became well-known due to the publicity campaign which accompanied its revelation to the public as a "genuine" pre-Columbian map in 1965. In addition to showing Africa, Asia and Europe, the map depicts a landmass south-west of Greenland in the Atlantic labelled as Vinland (Vinlanda Insula).
The Vinland Map was discovered in 1957, bound up with a Manuscript of Undisputed Antiquity, "The Historia Tartorum." The Map supposedly is a 15th century copy of a 13th century world map, showing the known parts of Europe, Asia and Africa, as well as an unknown land across the Atlantic Ocean labelled Vinland. The map also mentions that Vinland was visited in the 11th century.
