NLIS 1 September 15, 2000 (Tourism, Culture and Recreation) Viking Millennium International Symposium set to begin The Viking Millennium International Symposium, an affiliated event of the Vikings! 1000 Years program, is set to begin this evening in St. John’s. Scholars and Viking experts from around the world will gather from September 15 - 24 in three locations across the province including St. John’s, L’Anse aux Meadows and the Labrador Straits to discuss many aspects of Norse culture during the period of exploration that spurred the new world journeys of Leif Ericson. "For the first time ever, 300 participants including 70 speakers from all over the world will gather where Leif Ericson landed 1,000 years ago and became the first European to meet our indigenous peoples. This symposium is especially valuable because the papers the speakers will present and the discussions that will follow will provide us with a better understanding of the Viking Age," said Charles Furey, Minister of Tourism, Culture and Recreation. The panel of well-known Viking scholars includes: Magnus Magnusson, Benedicte Ingstad, Birgitta Wallace, Peter Sawyer, William Fitzhugh, Patrick Wallace, and Richard Hall. The symposium is divided into three major themes including

The Heroic Age Issue 3 Summer 2000 Archaeology Digest Compiled by Michelle Ziegler Vikings and Picts Romans Anglo-Saxons Romano-British Vikings and Picts Leif Ericsson Anniversary Celebrations October 9, 2000 is the millennial anniversary of Leif Ericsson's foundation of the first European colony in North America at L'Anse aux Meadows in a region that Leif called Vinland (now Newfoundland). Celebrations to commemorate the anniversary are underway on both sides of the Atlantic. The Viking Network has organized a relay of a case, containing educational information on the Vikings of c. 1000 AD and Leif in particular, to be carried from school to school throughout the areas where the Vikings once sailed. The case will travel from Scandinavia to Russia, Ukraine, Israel, France, Britain, Ireland, Germany, Iceland, Greenland and finally on to North America. You can follow the case online at http://www.viking.no/vnet/projects/leif_2000/casevisits.html . At the time of writing it was just leaving Germany for Iceland after already traveling to Norway, Russia, Ukraine, Israel, France, Ireland and Britain. The Smithsonian Museum in the US will also offer a traveling exhibit to celebrate the Viking millennial event. The exhibit, called "Vikings: The North Atlantic Saga", will open at the Smithsonian in Washington on April 29, 2000 and run through August 13, 2000. This 3 million dollar exhibit will host more than 200 artifacts from 800 AD to contemporary pop culture items in a 5500 sq. foot exhibit. Artifacts have been collected not only from the United States collections but also from Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Greenland, and Canada. After the close of the Smithsonian exhibit August 13, artifacts will begin a two year tour of North America visiting New York, Ottawa, Los Angeles, Houston, and Chicago.

Stretching some 1500 km from north to south, and a similar distance east to west at its widest points, at its maximum extent it would have had a surface area at least twice that of the Caspian Sea." "Formed by the damming of the Yenisei and Ob rivers by an eastward lobe of the Ural and Putorana ice sheets, this mega-lake appears, from the available dates, to have reached its maximum extent by around 24,000 years ago, and to have existed in some form up until around 12,000 or 13,000 radiocarbon years ago." "The lake which existed would have covered most of western Siberia, stretching about 1500 km from north to south (see map Fig.3), with several large islands of higher ground emerging from it."
