Norse people - 2024 ARGOS @ McMaster

Question

A map by Claudius Clavus perpetuated the legend that these people encountered a race of Unipeds. For 10 points each:

[10e] Name these people, one of whom was shot in the groin by a one-legged skraeling during their explorations. Poor relations with Natives led these people to abandon L’Anse Aux Meadows.

ANSWER: Norse people [or Norsemen; or Vikings; or Norwegians; or Danes; or Swedes; or Scandinavians; prompt on Europeans; prompt on Whites]

[10m] Hjalmar Holand speculated that Norse ancestry explained the blond hair and blue eyes of some members of this tribe of Plains Indians. Lewis and Clark first met Sacagawea while wintering at a North Dakota fort named for this tribe.

ANSWER: Mandan people [or Mandans; or Nųmą́khų́·ki; or Aroxbagua; accept Fort Mandan]

[10h] This out-of-place artifact, which was found in a shell midden near Penobscot Bay, may suggest Norse contact. If genuine, it was probably minted under Olaf the Peaceful.

ANSWER: the Maine penny [or the Goddard coin]
