I think it has been proven that Vikings landed in Newfoundland quite a 
bit before Columbus.

"L'Anse aux Meadows is the only authenticated Viking site in North 
America. It was established 1000 years ago by the explorer Leif 
Eiriksson during his adventures in eastern North America - 500 years 
before Columbus' exploits in the "New World". The site was rediscovered 
by Helge Ingstad and his wife Anne Stine in 1960. L'Anse aux Meadows is 
now a National Historic Park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the first 
cultural site in the world to receive this designation - a symbol of its 
outstanding cultural and historical value."
