COLONIAL PARADIGM: NORSE or NO NORSE?

‪

DID HE SPEAK NORSE?

Hint
As heard in Norway

Eleonorah Jönsson wrote:

 Well, the Natives and the Swedes intermarried over the five hundred years they lived close from up Hudson River where Swedes and Dutch had a trade station all way down to the border of Florida, along the coast from Nova Scotia down to South Carolina Swedes, Scots and Basques settled and traded.
.

Norwegians and Danes had at least 5 small settlements in Labrador from Hudson Bay to Atlantic Ocean.
.

Five Calmar Union flags are marked on one of the earliest French maps.
.

 The Danes and some of the Norse working for the Greenlanders traded furs, falcons and Eagles from Natives via a harbor south of Greenland where also Ivory, dried cod and hard cheese in salt water were sent over the Ocean.
.

Mainly Danes, Norse and some Greenlanders started … settling in southwestern Hudson Bay at first close to Nelson, than entering via small boats all way to South Dakota.

All of Eleonorah’s statements belong to the

PARADIGM of the RECENT PAST, 
AD 1000 to 1607.
.

The LENAPE HISTORY says Norse people settled throughout Eastern North America, starting 1,000 years ago.  So Eleonorah and the authors of the LENAPE HISTORY agree with each other.

The “evidence" that purportedly links Algonquin with Norse does not measure up to the scientific standards of historical linguistics, so there is nothing to remark upon. … there is no basis grounded in sound historical linguistic methodology for Sherwin’s claims.

Obviously there is a difference of opinion.  Who describes the Paradigm of the Recent Past more correctly?
.

‪Eleonorah Jönsson also asked why her data and other evidence of Basques along the America Atlantic coast down to Florida have not been published?

.

My answer is that the English in AD 1610 decided to profoundly distort history by using SUPPRESSION by OMISSION.
.

The English wanted the world to believe that the people they found in America were savage pagans.
.

The English wanted the world to believe the language of those “pagans” was NOT from the east side of the Atlantic.
.

If the people of Europe knew the language came from the east, then they would think it was Norse, which it was.
.

If the language was Norse, then the American people might have been Catholics, which they were.
.

Then how could the English explain the genocide of American Catholics, who spoke Norse?  What would the Vatican have done, if the Pope knew, for sure, that Catholics were being exterminated in America?
.
Shortly after Columbus discovered an island off America, the Spanish conquistadors treated Americans worst than animals.   
.

The professors in newly developing Spanish universities tried to determine if Americans were human.  If they were, the professors would encourage the conquistadors to treat the Americans like humans. 

One group of professors knew of about 20 voyages that had happened over the horizon to the west.  They advocated a hypothesis that the humans in America came by boat sometime in the past.
.
Anther group of porfessors had a hypothesis that the Americans came across a land bridge in the Northwest part of the North America. No European had been to the Northwest part of North America.
.
The professors reasoned, without seeing any evidence, that humans must have walked, somehow,  to America from Asia. 
.

The English professors advocated the latter, bogus, hypothesis because those hypothetical people from the west would NOT have spoken Norse.
.

The Bering Strait hypothesis, as it is now known, became a mental model cover up of the colonial past, which enabled English to deny that the American people spoke Norse.
.

Because the Bering Strait “answered questions before they were asked” the Bering Strait migration was (and still is) published in the English curriculums.
.

The effectiveness of SUPRESSION by OMISSION is demonstrated by the email statements of Brian Joseph.   He honestly believes what he taught.  Even though he is a linguist, he believes the profoundly distorted English story that there were no Norse in North America.
. 
.Reider T.  Sherwin, a man who grew up speaking an accent of Old Norse, compiled a list of 15,000 LENAPE (a.k.a. Algonquin)=Norse words.

Two men, Dr. Myron Paine, and Craig Judge, deciphered some of the LENAPE HISTORY using Sherwin’s data.
.

Sherwin’s data has also been used to interpret labels of four hundred year old paintings of North America,

 to decipher North America place names from Hudson Bay to Miami, Florida,

and other evidence left in colonial journals.
. The bits of remaining evidence, including Norse words, indicate that:
.

1. The English invaders of 1607-1743 knew the Americans spoke Norse.
.

2.  The English invaders killed and enslaved Catholics, who spoke Norse.
.

3.  The English invaders told the Eurocentric people that the Americas were savage pagans, which the English called “Indians.”
.

4.  The English Invaders destroyed six Catholic churches from Jamestown to Nova Scotia.  The people in those churches spoke Norse.
.

5.  The English invaders suppressed the words “Catholic,” “Norse,” and “LENAPE” by omitting those words from publications.

6. After the English won the "first world war" (a.k.a. The French and the Indian War) their agents did a proactive sweep of the literture, maps, and paintings.  The English agents purged most evidence that Norse were in America.
.

The  colonial PROTESTANT educators obeyed the suppression by omission rules.  Roger William's book, The Key to the American Indian Language does not have the words "Catholic," "Norse," or "LENAPE."  Williams apparently thought that printing Norse Words and their meaning would enable a linguist in Europe to determine that the Language was Old Norse.
.
Reider T. Sherwin did that in 1946.
.
I do not know why all the university professors for four centuries did not do what Sherwin did.  I just say that they "taught what they learned.  They did not investigate to find what was omitted."
.

 After a century and a half, AD 1607 to 1743, of proactive “cleansing” of world wide records, NOST THINGS reminding ANYONE of Norse in America has been labeled “Hoax.”

 Any person advocating Norse in America has been ridiculed or ignored.  Ignorance is a form of suppression by omission.

The suppression by omission has reduced the effectiveness of writings by Roger Williams, Hjalmar Holand, Rafensque, Reider T. Sherwin, Thomas E. Lee, and within this decade, Patricia Sutherland.
.
I tried for over a decade to make contact, at least once a year, with 423 carefully selected professors.  Thus I can state that I have been ignored at least 4200 times.
.
We do not know what fate lies in store for Eleonorah.
.
But, if past is prolog, she, too, will be suppresed by professors who desire to deny that there were Norse in America.
.

I think the best way to overcome four centuries of SUPPRESSION by OMISSION is for ALL of us to write or say as often as we can:
.

When the English invaded,

Most Americans were Catholics,

Who spoke Norse.

LENAPE LAND.
