		<description><![CDATA[Our ancestors were here first, and it was the sleek longship, the steed of the waves, that plowed the New World’s waters, not Spanish caravels. It was not Rodrigo de Triana who sighted the Americas from the Pinta on October 12, 1492 but some nameless Norse mariner some five centuries before. Neither was Columbus the first to bring a Native American home to Europe; there too the Norse were first.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Though we’ll never know the particulars, we know there were fifty-one young Norsemen who never came home from a raid in Saxon England, and fifty-one mothers who waited in vain for word of their sons. “Most of them were in their late teens to early 20s, with a handful in their 30s.” A mixed raiding party gathered from all over the Norse world, one even from north of the Arctic Circle.]]></description>

The pylon is red granite from quarries in Aswan, 700 miles south of Alexandria. It is a single slab weighing 9 tons and it is 7.4 feet tall. [...]]]></description>

How much worse must it have been for Bronze Age peoples who had no idea such things existed let alone any sort of warning system. James Cameron (of whom you&#8217;d expect [...]]]></description>

Apologetics are as old as orthodox Christianity and they are as popular (and necessary) today as they were in the second century. Not a few of them are aimed at Bart Ehrman, which is reason [...]]]></description>
