Composed sometime in the 11th century, and coming down to us through an early English translation, the Wenderskrolla describes the voyage of the fisherman named Borg, leader of the Wendergrønd:īorg, whilst fordrunken of mead, declared “I wondreth what would happen if I just kept sailing west.” His crew, also fordrunken of mead, mirthfully snickered, and for thirty days and thirty nights they sailed westward for no discernible reason. “half-assed” attitude and paltry attendance in raids.Īlthough archeological evidence of viking presence in mainland North America has been traditionally connected to accounts of the explorer Leif Erikson, in recent scholarship this role has been taken up by the newly discovered Wenderskrolla.

These goofballs reappear in the historical record in the accounts of Irish monks who, while writing about Vikings, refer to a people they called the Wendergrønd, who were distinguished from the other Vikings by their distinct incessant sailing chant “Full mug, flip mug,” as well as their Veiny phalluses stop appearing around 36,000 BC, roughly when fossil records indicate that WUnderground members were expelled from the area.Īfter a period of prolonged migration and displacement, WUnderground settled in lower Scandinavia in the Early Middle Ages.

Some of the images have a blurred area around the genitals, indicating that certain members of the community attempted to erase the bulging veins and redraw normal penises, probably several times. The attention paid to the phalluses of these bison far outranks the attention paid to the rest of their bodies, and particular emphasis is placed on the dorsal artery. A handful of those paintings, which date back perhaps 40,000 years, have captivated and perplexed anthropologists for decades because of their intricately detailed phalluses. This gravesite is usually connected to the impressive nearby cave paintings portraying traveling bison. The earliest known remains of WUnderground members were discovered in the 1920s by a team of French archeologists in north western Anatolia, buried in a paleolithic gravesite alongside a community of early modern humans.
