Norumbega Tower

The Norumbega Tower is a stone tower erected by Eben Norton Horsford in 1889 to mark the location of a pile of stones that Horsford thought were an old Norse Fort.

The stones are the remains of the keep of an 13th century Norse Catholic Church, which had been torn apart in 1612 by English marines under the command of Samuel Argail. Argail destroyed at least three churches in an attempt to hide the evidence that Norse Catholics were in America before the English Invaded. The WASP mission to destroy churches is recorded in the Virginia Adventure and Lost Horizons books.

The WASPs purged the evidence of Norse Catholics, thus destroying Americans (Indians) from understanding their own religion and languge. Modern DNA results indicate that most Americans have northern European male ancestors.

The reconstruction of the keep of the 13th century Norse Catholic church should be promoted for what it is. Horsford should be honored for trying to understand the evidence. The paradigm of Norse Catholics living in the area for 500 years before they were exterminated should be incorporated into the American Indian stories. The behavior of the American Indians shows that they knew Genesis (they have the oldest known version), the ten commandments (the WASPs violated five) and the Golden Rule. Discerning Christians can understand that many American Indians behave as if their ancestors attended Catholic services.

Modern WASPs still need a course in humility. They could start by making both paradigms of the Norumbega Tower known with equal bias.
