Vinland map

Manuscript on parchment of an outline map of Europe, Africa, Asia, the surrounding seas and the islands including Iceland, Greenland, and "Vinland," which resembles the coastline of northern North America, with identifying legends. Known as the "Vinland Map," at the time it was acquired by Yale it was considered to be the earliest European map of any portion of the Western Hemisphere. The authenticity of the map was the subject of considerable debate for decades. Extensive scientific testing sponsored by Yale University in 2021, conclusively demonstrated that the map is a modern forgery

Originally the Vinland Map, Speculum historiale (Beinecke MS 350), and Hystoria Tartarorum (Beinecke MS 350A.1) were bound together in that order in a single volume, as is indicated by the patterns of the wormholes
