In 1957 a European silver coin dating to the eleventh century was discovered at a Native American archaeological site in the state of Maine in the United States. Many people believed the coin had been originally brought to North America by European explorers known as the Norse, who traveled across the Atlantic Ocean and came into contact with Native Americans almost a thousand years ago.
However, some archaeologists believe that the coin is not a genuine piece of historical evidence but a historical fake: they think that the coin was placed at the site recently by someone who wanted to mislead the public. There are three main reasons why some archaeologists believe that the coin is not genuine historical evidence
The article states that an old European silver coin detected at American archaeological site are fake products brought by explorers. Some people assume that someone recently placed the coins at this site. The reading passage mentions that the coin is not actual historical evidence and states three main reasons to support this idea. However, the professor refutes each of these reasons.
First, the reading claims that they were long-distance between where the coins were discovered and the site where Norse inhabited there; it is more than a thousand kilometers. In contrast, the professor mentions that many other objects found in the same area also came from far away. The people who traveled from North America brought these materials from Norse settlements during their travels and brought the coins back to their settlements.
Second, the article states that just limited coins were found at the Canadian sites that were Norse people inhabited there. However, the lecturer claims that the Norse had no permanent settlements, and when they returned to Europe, they packed up all their valuable things, including their coins.
Finally, the reading passage asserts that the Norse would have no reason to bring coins to the new site. On the contrary, the professor refutes the argument by saying that coins were valuable and appealing for the Norse people so maybe they used it as necklaces and jewelry, which ultimately gave the Norse a trading and bargaining tool to use with the Native Americans even if the native Americans did not necessarily view the coin as currency.
