История
Herjólfsnes was a Norse Icelandic settlement in Greenland, 50 km northwest of Cape Farewell. It was established by Herjólfr Bardsson in the late 10th century and is believed to have lasted some 500 years. The fate of its inhabitants, along with all the other Norse Greenlanders, is unknown. The site is known today for having yielded remarkably well-preserved medieval garments, excavated by Danish archaeologist Poul Nørlund in 1921. Its name roughly translates as Herjolf's Point or Cape.
