I know it was a joke but A.D. 870 is way older than white folks in North America.
"Archeologists have a precise method for dating the settlement of Iceland. A volcano eruption occurred right around A.D. 871, and covered much of southwestern Iceland with a layer of ash. Any objects found below this layer would date to before A.D. 870, whereas objects found above this layer date to after that period. So far, no archeological remains or sites have been found predating the ash layer, suggesting that the settlement of Iceland was a Viking activity, without prior Celtic involvement. While sagas and the historical evidence suggest a degree (usually estimated at 30%) of Celtic participation in the settlement of Iceland, probably as slaves of Viking chieftains, the archeological evidence such as Viking Age houses and material remains indicates the settlement was overwhelmingly a Norse activity.
Several objects from the few pagan/Viking burials do indicate that the earliest inhabitants of Iceland had cultural ties to many areas, including Saami-land, Sweden, and Finland. Most of the non-Viking objects are from the Western Isles. This includes jet, which is mined only at the English town of Whitby, and ringed-pins, which were made in Dublin and exported throughout the North Sea. Though not conclusively identifying the ethnicity of the person, these objects certainly suggest ties with areas outside of the Scandinavian homelands, especially the Western Isles."
Just curious, s anything old enough in Iceland to be archaic?
