Picture

Dbachman, very nice picture. Helps a lot. I'm having trouble finding Mousa Brooch in the picture (on the right?). -- Stbalbach 22:40, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Go over, or around?

Here is statement that is funny: "The Norse tended to consider an island to be something that they could circumnavigate, and this included being able to drag a boat over land. Thus Mousa was considered two islands, namely North Isle and South Isle." Really? Drag the ship over a small island rather than just seiling around it? The old norse people may be primitive, but were they really that stupid? I guess this story is something that is borrowed from the story of Magnus Barefoot (see bio).
