Saga of Erik the Red
''Eiríks saga rauða'' () or the ''Saga of Erik the Red'' is a saga on the Norse exploration of North-America.
The saga chronicles the events that led to Erik the Red's banishment to Greenland as well as Leif Ericson's discovery of Vinland after his longship was blown off course. By geographical details, this place is thought to be present-day Newfoundland, and was probably the first European discovery of the American mainland, some five centuries before Christopher Columbus's voyage to Central America.
The saga is preserved in two manuscripts in somewhat different versions; ''Hauksbók'' (14th century) and ''Skálholtsbók'' (15th century). Modern philologists believe the ''Skálholtsbók'' version to be truer to the original. The original saga is thought to have been written in the 13th century.
==Sites mentioned==
The saga mentions the following sites beyond Greenland: Helluland, Markland, Bjarney, Kjalarnes, Furdustrandir, Straumfjörð, Straumey, Vinland, Hóp, Einfœtingjaland, Hvítramannaland and the "Irish Ocean".
